Your wish came true

Would your life have changed

Had your wish came true

When you wished me away

Would you miss me, if you even knew

 

Would you have noticed my absence

Would you even care

Or would you have been happier

If I was not there

 

You say you love me now

You say you want to be close

But how can I believe

When I was once your greatest foe

 

I’m sorry sister

But I just can’t let go

Your wishes still came true

And you just didn’t know

Author's Note

you don't need to know all of my personal life to understand sibling rivalry, just know for the younger one, the pain doesn't just go away when the older one decides to "be friends"

this poem is also unrefined, i just needed to get the words out, i might come back and redo it....

You expressed the sibling rivalry very well.
I agree that the pain doesn't just go away when the older one decides to "be friends".
However,hope that all individuals sacrifice ago and anger to enjoy peaceful humane relationship.

I love it, reminds me of my own middle sister and her rivalry I guess you could say. It made me think of this song by Flyleaf:
"Broken Wings"

Thank you for being such a friend to me
Oh I pray a friend for life
And have I ever told you how much you mean to me
Oh, you're everything to me
I'm thinking all the time
How to tell you what I feel
I'm contemplating phrases
I'm gazing at eternity
I am floating in serenity

And I am so lost for words
And I am so overwhelmed

Please don't go just yet
Can you stay a moment please
We can dance together
We can dance forever

Under your stars tonight
We'll live and breathe this dream
So close your eyes
but don't dream too deep
And please pass me some memories
And when I fall you're underneath
1000 broken hearts
Carried by 1000 broken wings

Wow...intense. Just because you are born into the same family, doesn't mean your relationship will be easy. Sometimes, as you convey, very far from easy! Expressed very well.!
