Saleha

.

You were born
A couple of years too late
To be my twin.
But you made up for it :
Following me around
Most of my bumbling life.
Or at least I choose to think so.
But it keeps me in check -
For there are places you won't follow -
And I'm loath to go there.

The light that shines out of your line of sight
Is the one that guides the way.
