You’re my sister

My friend

We quarrel

Fight

Scream

But even through all of this

I can’t imagine

Life without you

I love our

Random dance parties

With cheesy pop music

And broom microphones.

Bouncing out of control on the couch

Across the house

Tickle fights

That we know we’re too old for.

Hugs when the other is crying

Keeping secrets

Or telling them.

Telling bedtime stories that go on forever

And make no sense

Alligators

Red Jacket

Zoo

The random café where you meet “Him”

Talking about the boys we like

Or hate

And the friends

That make us angry

Heartbreaks

Headaches

Piggy back rides

That neither of us can really do anymore

Hair and Makeup

Just know

That no matter how often I whine

About you

About our family

About how annoying you are

That

I

Love

You

And no matter where I go

We will always be sisters
