My Sister, My Sister
The value of a hand to hold
When the skies are dark and the air is cold
When the wind whips shelters with pushes and pulls
Is worth far more than my weight in gold
You stood 4 feet and fearless the day we met
A fierce firecracker with a gentle, caring touch You've been my loyal warrior for

Ode to Petunia
Petunia is the plain little sister
who gets overlooked and passed over.
She’s not the pretty one,
always quiet and reserved,
not classy, fancy or graceful.
She takes backstage at every turn.
No games, no false pretenses.
She’s frumpy, floppy and flimsy.
Her scent is unrefined,
not confused with real perfumes.
She’s somewhat of an ugly duckling
but when the going gets tough,
we can’t help but

womb mates
my sister and I have shared a room
since before we were born
when we shared a womb
we shared a fertilized egg
we are identical twins
womb mates

JESSICA DAWN NWAD ACISSEJ
JESSICA DAWN NWAD ACISSEJ
Jesting with shadows, A twin's eerie grin,
Echos of laughter where the black cat has been.
Skeletons waltz by the dim candlelight,
Sister, you are the one who loves the dark of the night.
In a dance macabre, with bony, tapping toes,
Chaos and humor wherever you go.
Always a joke, a morbid, whispered rhyme,
Darkness falls heavy, we've

Someone's Little Sister
It hurts because;
we were once so close until drugs made you a drifter.
The person you used to be... I miss her.
It's as though I lost a piece - the best piece of me
&& now I'm just someone's little sister.
I'm scared because;
you doesn't see your beauty,
or shout with courage anymore.
I'm scared because you’re hurting and I don't

The Precious Jewels
How she loved diamonds, her birthstone.
Literally diamonds were her best friends.
She worked very hard and each piece
of jewelry she bought made her happy.
Cluster of diamonds or solitaires, emeralds
and sapphires with diamonds set in precious
metals of gold or

Blame it on Fraternization
My little sister loved to fraternize
So her newfound curves she just had to hide
Sis wore frumpy clothes
Nothing was exposed
Now, why were those

LOVE-
????YOU WHOM I
LONG TO HOLD
I love you whom I long to hold
Holding you it's not impossible
But I inhale when I look with my eyes
When I exhale I am not surprised
Because it's you whom I long to hold
I am holding you in my thoughts
I am holding you in my dreams
I am

For he had

And we will reasure..

what kind of sisters are they
both of them knew their sister was dying
neither of them called or contacted her
holding a grudge
while she was dying?
their own sister?
what kind of women are these?
the selfish kind

Sister By Blood
She walked towards me,
I never had a sister by blood.
Maybe that was about to change.
Blood was all over her
as she walked towards me.
It seemed like I already knew her.
She is from another time,
I must have met her somewhere.
Familiarity permeated my mind.
Blood was all over her,
still I wasn’t the least bit fearful.
In this moment I’m

The Art of Blaming You
i wonder if my sister is aware
she’s the reason i lost my muchness
it’s like i don’t want to be loud anymore
i want to be like a whisper
or a gust of wind
i want to be quiet and go unnoticed
so bad that i tip toe
and hold my breath
maybe because i approached it

Carry you
I carry you with me
Everywhere that I go.
In my eyes,
In my smile,
In the way I walk,
How I talk,
Even how I act and dress.
I am something of you merged,
Bits of what you were,
Pieces of what you are,
Snippets of what
..you could have been,
And as I continue,
I will become something of you never seen.
I carry
