Sisters

My sister and I had a huge fight during the weekThere was so much shouting And door slamming That I'm pretty sure the whole road heard usWe both said things we didn't meanMy sister used the words 'junkie' and 'waster'I feel so hurtI know my sister regrets what she saidShe was really upset afterI forgave her But forgetting is not so easyShe went in to town yesterday And left this for me on the kitchen table 


We both said things we didn't meanBut I feel she really went for the jugularShe accused me of usingSaid I was out of my head most of the timeI'm not usingBut I will admit to misusing my medsIs that the same thing?I'm not so sure
I guess the thing about fighting with a family member Is that we know exactly how to hurt the other personAnd which buttons to press After the fight my mom rang me She said  that my sister was really upsetAnd asked me if I would go and check on herSo I made her a cup of teaAnd brought it to her bedroomShe was crying And seemed really down We had a chatAnd made up
I can't lie though I feel really bruised by what she saidI can take physical pain any day of the weekBut attack me with words?That effects me more than any punch or slap across the faceI'm being pretty cool with my sister at the moment Since the fight I've kept my distance Will I get over it?Yes Probably Will I forget?Probably not....
