The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

A Poem to My Sister (who hasn't seen it yet)

This poem almost felt too personal to post, but I don't know why I shouldn't so I did

 

 

To Elizabeth

 

You’re tough. No one can ever make you cry,

‘Til you’re alone. Your pain is your secret.

You’ve always been like that-no matter what:

Fractured your leg being a daredevil,

And then you walked on it, all the way home.

You balanced on a slanted third floor roof,

Purely to hang a silly pineapple.

 

You act very unreachable these days.

As you grow up and everything changes,

Lizzy, some things just need to stay the same.

One of those things I rather wish you’d keep

Is you and me-Sisters.

Dear Gwaihir,

 

I do very much enjoy this poem, and the work of yours on The Pen that I have read thus far. Nyyark13 suggests that we have a great deal in common, and that topic is something I would be very interested in conversing with you on a more private occasion. My e-mail is AncientAutumn@opendiary.com, and I hope to learn yours sometime, but I must get back to my own devices, before returning to the room in which I left Nyyark13. I look forward to speaking with you.

 

-Icarus
