Time with my Teenage Sister
Shopping with my teenage sister.
Picking out fun clothes with her.
Eat our fast food in the car
While rain pours down so hard.
Come home to go back out.
To splash in the puddles with no pout.
To bounce on the trampoline
Because more fun we've never seen.
Then she wants to go back in.
"Can we play a board game, then?"
But no, she doesn't want to play.
She hasn't had her phone all day.
And now it's all she wants to do,
Abandoning everything, including me, too.
It's always like that and it's alright
For her to text all day and night.
But today is different,
Today she did some things with me
And now I see an opportunity.
We have started and I don't want to stop.
I want to end the day perfectly like a cherry on top.
