The year 2025 is the first year since my sister was born I have not seen her. She was here for part of 2024 but the worst time for me and maybe for her was the diagnosis which she got just before the queen’s funeral. That is when I wrote this poem below

For so long you loved and imitated me
Then we were students at the university
Without you, I won’t feel like anyone
To whom shall I turn when you are gone?
When you’re the one who shared my infant bed
When you’re the one who treasured all I said
When you’re the one I held in the dark night
When you are gone there can be no more light
When the moment comes,I must believe
For trees shall weep their leaves as if bereaved
Then will my sister heart with sadness heave.
Oh do not do not ,do not ,do not leave
