The emotion is so palpable in this piece, I wept. You give a beautiful tribute to your sister hear, and you remember her in such beautiful and vivid terms. There is such sadness and loss here, such a deep well. Through that space, you have preserved a part of her, and you show us how wonderful she was.
You have a lot of strength to write and share this piece. It is inspiring. You have made a lot of things clear to me in your writing that I can apply to my own life as well. I think I finally understand a lesson that I did not grasp before.

I lost two brothers to suicide. I joined war to find peace. I did. Hard to lose someone you loved and needed. Especially if they are younger and support to out-live you. I could feel the sadness and the lost in the sad poem. We must remember the people who left us too soon. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
