To my comfort and my chaos

For my person, my reason to keep going in life <3

I feel a bit emotional 

when I look at her sometimes, 

the one who has become 

my greatest responsibility 

over time.

When I look in her eyes, 

I find this unshakable strength 

to get through life.

The way she pats my back 

reminds me, 

that not everything has gone bad.

The love I hold for her is 

boundless and unspeakable.

She’s been my only audience, 

my pillar of support. 

Funny,

how sometimes, 

the younger ones 

are more mature.

When I look at her, 

I can’t help but smile.

Then I pull her hair 

and run away a mile.

We know 

there’s love hidden in a sibling’s fight.

Annoying her is a lifetime delight 

and my special right.

 

Our shared fights, cries, 

and laughter, stitch memories 

two after one.

Yet I wish 

time would slow down, 

cause I don’t want to be 

the shorter elder sister.

She looks at me 

with so much admiration, 

like looking at the sky 

with endless potential.

A big age gap, 

so I was almost a mother. 

No other pair of eyes 

brings me this much comfort.

A hug from her is

all I need,

when I feel heartbroken.

I guess god knew 

I wouldn’t stay long 

if she weren’t here, either. 

She’s the blessing 

I never asked for, 

quietly came true. 

In long nights 

and tiring days, 

she reminds me why I stay.

So, to my younger sister, 

thank you 

for choosing me 

as your elder sister.

Author's Note

Although these mere words don't capture even half of the love I hold for her, I wanted to write a poem for the one I'm forever grateful for. So this prose-poem is for my other half, my twin flame, my confidante, my younger sister. The one who gave me a purpose and the one whose expectations I want to live up to. Forever grateful to her for coming into my life, thank you <3
