The Last Cross-Out
Turning older as one year withers away
Anna darling, my forever best-called sister
seeped into her silky night gown just as I did
and pulled the covers to her chest,
ready to spread a good bedtime story over Window Messanger
to feed my hungry soul.
Our deepest secret always hidden in our hearts
The explicit details were even spilled out
Maybe this trust developed due to the fact that
we now live in different ends of the earth.
This safe haven of ours was rummaging through high school years,
ex-boyfriends, us but especially LOVE.
How complicated but also blissful our parts are.
Who will you choose, god please help her? Are you sure?
Are you truly happy? What do your parents thing?
Who are you happy with most, THINK, make an impulse decision tonight?
A good debate, but it never
ends with a point we can consider.
Finally she changed and asked to play a game
THE 20 QUESTIONS - such a girl thing, you may say
It started out fun but later required crucial thinking
as it relates to our debate
She asked: LOVE or MONEY?
I asked her: PARENTS or LOVE?
We sat for minutes, thinking...
She wanted to prove her point as much as I did
Finally I decided it had to be LOVE
Since we're both fortunate to meet our soulmates
Sweet, ever-lasting and healthy where distance means nothing.
Finally she chose PARENTS. The last to cross out from the list.
Until they approve THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE
can you then walk hand in hand with him...
My point exactly...
Wish me luck
