Two Sisters

Two sisters born on the very same day
One as fair in face
As an unmarked snowfall would lay
Hair like golden lace

The other olive as a sun kissed skin
Eyes of charcoal grey
That envied the ocean in the eyes of her twin
Under her raven waves

As they grew one small and sweet
The other tall and brave
She still envied those golden curls
Under her raven waves

Two sisters wed on the same day
To a farmer and a priest
One as hard as the callous on a hand
The other soft as fleece

The farmers love was warm and strong
The priest just sought to save
But she still envied those golden curls
Under her raven waves

You never know the other side of the coin
Whose opposite you face
Milky skin and golden curls
Don’t fill a lonely day

Two sisters died on the very same night
Bent with time and age
One surrounded with children and light
The other on a narrow bed

As they flew one small and weak
The other tall and brave
She couldn’t envy those golden curls
When both their hair was grey

You never know the other side of the coin
Whose opposite you face
You cannot envy those golden curls
Under your raven waves
You cannot envy those golden curls
Under your raven waves
