She deserted me Over and over again Like a forgotten thought Of little consequence She, my sister Cut me out of her life More than once Blaming me Angry with me Because I wouldn’t Agree Or comply All I really wanted Was to be her friend To forge a relationship Close and sure Like the Brady Bunch Or the Partridge Family Or better yet The Ingalls from Little House on the Prairie What I got Empty words Promises she never meant to keep Apologies that were insincere And time with her Until She chose another Potential relationship again Again Alone again Why did I try How can you bond To someone who treats You so unkind It’s that misconception That you should be Loyal and true To family No matter what That only works If your family members are As kind And loyal as you I won’t give up completely But I will step back You’re no longer speaking With me again No explanation No possibility for reconciliation Just cut me off again So I accept You don’t want me I was never that important to you In the scheme of things But I will wait Cautiously Won’t harden my heart But will prepare To never hear from you again
