Simple words for a complex time

I know that you're brave,
But I'm not.

Is even this from God?
What does He want to teach?
Is this our Meteor?
It always falls somewhere.
Why did it fall on you,
When it should have been me?

I know you don't care,
But I do.

What about my brother?
What is it I should say?
Swollen eyes look at me,
He's angry and he's scared.
And I stand there useless,
With my heart in my throat.

I know you'll do well,
But I won't.
And it's not fair.
