6#
Some days we get along,
some days we don’t.
And truth is,
they not really my sisters.
They my aunties.
And sometimes
they look at me
like I don’t belong there.
So I learned young
how to make myself small.
How to stay quiet.
How to pretend
none of it hurts.
But pain grows with you.
It learns your name.
