My older sister will always be my best friend but it is a love/hate relationship, full of strong emotions and conflicting feelings.

Sisters My best friend And worst enemy Just leave me alone Always there for me I steal her clothes We share everything She buys me things That she needs Envious again Competing beauty They say we look like twins She's prettier than me Too long without a visit Moved in right next door Came 800 miles Just To be ignored Her option of me Matters more than most Too my face, critical Behind my back, boasts Support and edify Build up and inspire Ensuring she understands Her help is not required Curse when near Cry when away The only one to trust To keeps secrets safe But I'm the only one Allowed to criticize Don't mess with my sister Don't even try

Dear Crystol, I can relate to your fantastic poem. I am the older sister of my best friend/sister relationship and nobody ever messed with my lil sis without having to answer to me. We definitely have each others back in life. A splendid, soulful piece. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

Yup, I have two sisters. We love them with all our being but with strong emotions and conflicting emotions. For sure, don’t anyone else hurt them…rolling up my sleeves. Hugs ~ Kim
