The 'test' daughter

I fight with my sister a lot
I'm better with words
She's better physical
But I see it as normal
My dad tells us we'll need each other one day
But still, I wonder what it would be like to not have a sister
To just be me
Not the 'older' sister
I'm jealous of her sometimes
My parents allow her to do thing at an earlier age
It feels unfair
Like I was a test
And she is the better version
I struggle a lot
She seems to flow through all her problem

I wish I was the younger sister

- a burdened older sister
