dear sister

dear sister.

where did you go?

do you no longer have the memories?

how did you go?

why did you go?

dear sister. oh dear sister.

what about the giggles?

what about the fights?

dear sister. oh dear sister.

the ballet.

and the barbies.

the tap dances you danced

the songs you sung.

dear sister. oh dear sister.

i miss your warm eyes.

and the fiery complexion of your personality.

your audacious laugh.

and your mathematical prose.

dear sister. oh dear sister.

the secret whispers.

the silent tears

the webs you’ve weaved.

i miss them all.

dear sister. oh dear sister.

mistakes are made.

and mistakes are erased.

dear sister. oh dear sister.

there was love all around.

in every corner.

in everything heard.

there was love all around.

dear sister. oh dear sister.

i miss your sweet embrace.

and all your ways.

sister.

sister.

dear sister.

how long will you go? oh dear sister.

how long will you go?
