You're an introvert
Not shy
Just observantShe's an extrovert
A social butterfly
InclusiveYou observe
She's a good person
She talks to you
Because you're interestingThe calm waves
Carried by the moon
The bright light
Shining from the sunMy mom named me
After Lauryn Hill
It's her favorite artist
You tell her
She looks at you like
You're the biggest dorkShe asks you
To peel her orange
Because you're nails are long
You look at her like
She's an oddballLittle do we know
We're staring our best friend
Straight in the face
Sisters for life
God moms to our childrenA Leo and a Virgo
Who would've thought
It all started because of
Lauryn Hill and an Orange
