Kim, my little sister,
Born 13 months and 10 days after me,
Childhood playmate,
Teenage confidant,
Doting aunt to her nephews,
Shoulder to cry on.
You left me before I was ready to go at life without you.
I had thought that we would grow old together,
Our children would grow up knowing each other.
I might have been older... but I didn't expect you to leave my life while I was away.
I thought you'd still be there when I got back.
