Two Siblings

My brother and I are the only children of our parents.

Two of us.

Just Two siblings.


Tomorrow morning he flies home

to

Vancouver Island

B.C.


As we sat in the back yard this evening

it was if no time has past


I mean, we did see him in May

when we visited the island

but that's not what I meant


On a deeper level

it's as if no time ever passes

our connection

our sibling-ness

always remains preserved


If not enhanced


The thing that has changed

for the better

as we age

and both evolve

is the ability

to be more open

and

express our truths

without fear


So as we said see ya later

on the porch

this evening

and locked into a long

over extended hug ~

a rock filled my stomach

and my eyes stung with tears


Because the sad thing is

I don't know

the next time I'll see him

and

That part hurts.
