My Darling Cousin

My Darling Cousin.

Although cousins, you feel like a sister

That makes me happy that we are so close

When we were kids, we sang and played twister

We’d go to malls and try on tons of clothes


Funny how we’d laugh and try it all on

We’d giggle and buy hardly anything

We’d yell at each other and say, “Come on!”

We’d talk and listen to music and sing


I will always be there caring for you

Sharing secrets with you makes us closer

When you are sad, hurt, mad, alone, or blue

I’ll remove your troubles like a dozer


Then we’ll watch movies like when we were kids

‘Til we fall asleep and close our eyelids.
