They call it custody, a term used for prisoners, but maybe it's all one and the same with these unjust systems we're forced to live with, vindictive mothers we're forced to accept. When You Get Older is an emotional story told through poems of a bright young uncle and his relationship with his older brother and niece. Due to his parents' absence throughout his life, he's always looked up to his older brother like a father figure-and his niece is more like a little sister to him. He wouldn't change this family dynamic for anything. But it's not meant to last, and fate tears their family apart. After a period of separation where he questions himself and life, will he be able to find a way to bring back the family he never had? Or is his niece destined to repeat the same kind of childhood as him?
