Sis

You are in my very soul

The sister I always wanted

Always had

But never saw.

So far apart

Yet closer than any two could be.

Mannerisms

Favorite things

Ways that, for most, are learned

By being side by side,

But are innate in us.

I often wonder

What my life would have been

Had we shared a bedroom

Breakfast each morning

Hugs and kisses when needed

Even the occasional bickering.

Wondering doesn’t change reality.

We share hugs online

And blow kisses over the phone.

But I do know

That I couldn’t love you more

Than I do right now

Even from way over here.
