Shattered Bonds

I thought we were friends, I thought we were close,  
In laughter and secrets, we’d share the most.  
But whispers turned bitter, like shadows at noon,  
My sister's cruel words, like a dark, heavy tune.  
I never thought I would ever lose you,  
Thought bonds were unbreakable, steadfast and true.  
But you joined in the laughter, turned away from the light,  
Now memories linger, haunting the night.  
I didn’t think you would hate me, it cuts like a knife,  
Once filled with joy, now echoes of strife.  
What happened to trust, to the dreams that we shared?  
Now I stand here alone, feeling lost and impaired.
