When I looked in the mirror,
I saw a girl.
She was scared,
Running away from something.
Her long blond braids
Trailed behind her.
Her blue eyes shone with fear.

Something chased after,
After the little girl.
I thought,
Stop.
Suddenly,
The figure that was chasing
The small girl,
Stopped and turned to me.
It turned out to be
All of the emotions she tried to hide
From her family,
From her friends,
From the world.

The little girl,
She kept on running.
I reached out,
Out into the mirror,
With a gentle touch,
I grabbed her,
And held her close.
The little girl,
Whom had been
So frightened,
Looked up at me with her
Blue eyes.
She stopped running,
And just needed to be heard.

The little girl,
Held me back.
Somehow,
We were one,
I as her,
Her as I.
We were alike,
Alike in so many ways,
We kept secrets,
We kept on fighting the physical pain,
We kept on fighting the worries,
We kept on fighting
Without telling anyone,
We kept on fighting.
Together,
We fought.

I as her,
Her as I,
We are one.
We do not betray,
We do not lie,
We only keep secrets from the ones we love,
To keep them from burdens
That we cause.
But,
We never
Keep secrets from each other.


We are not heard,
We are one,
But we are two.
But
We will be heard.

Now,
We were both scared.
Scared of what
The responses will be
Once we tell
Our secrets.
So,
We will never tell
Our secrets
To anyone but each other.
We will never
Betray
Lie
Abandon
Each other.
Never ever.
We will not
Tell anyone
Who we are,
What we are,
What our secrets are,
Ever.

As sisters,
We will protect
Each other
For eternity.
Even when
The world ends,
We will protect
Each other.
