are you because of me?
am I me because of you?
the lines have long since blurred.
if, that is, they ever existed."

I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness.

There was a flicker of something in Greta's look. I couldn't tell whether it was a flicker of love or regret or meanness.
Carol Rifka BruntI watched, hoping she wouldn't come out too broke. It's all you can do for people sometimes, no matter how much you love them.

Oak, granite,
Lilies by the road,
Remember me?
I remember you.
Clouds brushing
Clover hills,
Remember me?
Sister, child,
Grown tall,
Remember me?
I remember you.

It was nice to be in such close physical proximity, even though they hadn't spoken in months, and only via cursory birthday cards and the like. In the end, it didn't matter. Sisters were sisters.

Suzanne Elizabeth AndersonMy sister Emily first declined. The details of her illness are deep-branded in my memory, but to dwell on them, either in thought or narrative, is not in my power. Never in all her life had she lingered over any task that lay before her, and she did not linger now. She sank rapidly. She made haste to leave us. Yet, while physically she perished, mentally, she grew stronger than we had yet known her. Day by day, when I saw with what a front she met suffering, I looked on her with anguish of wonder and love. I have seen nothing like it; but, indeed, I have never seen her parallel in anything. Stronger than a man, simpler than a child, her nature stood alone. The awful point was, that, while full of ruth for others, on herself she had no pity; the spirit inexorable to the flesh; from the trembling hand, the unnerved limbs, the faded eyes, the same service exacted as they had rendered in health. To stand by and witness this, and not dare to remonstrate, was pain no words can render.

And I felt closer to you. Because you knew me so much better than I'd realized - and still loved me.
