Irreplaceable

Irreplaceable

Is us

You and I

Together

Joking and laughing from things like the weather

To ghost cows and weird books and crazy ideas

To fanfictions and emails and drafts we'll never send.

We laugh so hard we cry

We talk and we think

We analyze and fantasize 

With our cousin telepathy.

You're irreplaceable

A song in my heart

While we may sometimes fight,

And are often apart,

I look forward to calling you,

Seeing you, making memories

Some sweet and some tart.

You are my second half

The one who completes me;

I talk a lot of my friends,

But you're my every reason.

We live separate lives

Have different friends

Social groups, opinions on math that never ends

But most we have in common

Like book series we love

How we write and we chat and we make the rules bend.

We are the cousins, unbreakable and strong

Rebellious and caring,

Passionate and daring.

Thank you so much for making me feel funny

Making me laugh at our ridiculous stories

Cool and hilarious and occasionally boring

I love every moment, every in-between:

Irreplaceable, my cousin, is you and me.

    I guess I've been thinking

    The story mountain we made

    And the characters didn't even get their lives told

    Because ours crashed and burned before we could handle it

  • I Won't

    Nope

    I'm not going back to school.

    I'm going to ignore the back-to-school ads

    And shopping trips

    The packing

    The new outfits

    The brand-new pencils

    I won't do it
