A message to my little siblings.

You cry and you scream

your little cuts and scrapes are the end of the world

you argue over anything

yet your cries of despair, hurt my ears

I listen and stare

I give you that look a mother would

I care so much, and comfort your tiny tears

your mother and father are just as dear,

but I know your struggles are small

I have been there

I share with you these moments,

as a sister should, and yet some mothers do not,

you have the love from all, so remember always you are beloved,

receiving the love of a world,

you make me toss and turn when you fail

and I am still proud,

you lose your mind over the elementary homework

and little children in school,

I hope am in this future you littles one imagine so clear,

may I just let you know

my darling kids, it is not what you think right now

there is evil, but there is good

the only way to ever know is to share, 

live in the world you are imagining now, 

even if sometimes it does not show, 

your actions define who you are,

even if you forget one day,

you must take accountability for your good and bad times,

though they may haunt you at time, 

forgive yourself,

as everyone in perfect in your own way,

and you two little ones, have the most beautiful imperfections,

at times you make me want to pull my hair out,

and the next moment, you make me laugh and cry at the same time,

you are gorgeous flowers,

go earn your petals.
