Today was long. My mind kept wandering...back through the years. As hard as just 'being' was when we were children...I always thought that the bonds that kept us going through it all...would last forever. Somehow, along the way, my brother and sister have drifted off...I miss them.
For Ran and Toby…
Reminiscing softly…the past we didn’t have
Childhood lost to monsters in the night…
Fending off the demons, hand in hand,
Protecting each the other…fought the fight.
Much has come and gone with years
Love brought down the ugly walls…
Banished are those dark and lonely fears
Time worked its magic on us all.
To the darkness…I gladly bid farewell
With a joy my soul cannot contain…
But your voices and your presence
In my heart…forever will remain.
I miss the bond of love
Shared…all through those years
I miss your closeness,
Though I do not miss the tears.
If someday…again you need me...
Just know that this is true
I’ll be right here waiting…
It’s all that I can do.

I'm glad it's not just me - I'm one of five and I only see two of them regular - haven't spoken to one of them for over two years and the other over six. People seem to think this is strange but as the saying goes 'you can't choose your relatives' - we just have absolutely nothing in common other than our youth.
