Sisters

Posted on November 8, 2021 by Sue Santiago

I was a brat
You were mean
I had the mess
You made me clean
I got the blame
You made me take
I was the shadow 
You'd try to shake

You were a bride
I got a brother
You had a child
For me to smother
You moved away
I moved away, too
You're apart from me
I'm a part of you
