To my sister


Friend-sister, sister-friend:
You are a mirror in which I can
undress me
without the reflection judging,
that is what the rest of the world is for.
Your smile hugs me when I'm cold
and you share my victories,
the guilt-free crying,
the joyful jumps, the phone jokes,
and the best glass of wine.
No matter how far you are
our paths are parallel
and I just have to extend my hand
to touch you.
