Sisters of the Shadows

You see a weight;
It screams for attention.
It requires coddling and a caretaker;
 Someone with patience, and a bottomless well of love.

You see an obstacle,
Keeping you at bay.
 A large, neon sign that warns you to stay away.
 You see a complication that you aren't ready for...

I see happiness--
An abundance of curiosity--
 A bundle, now on the move,
 Learning quickly, growing steadily.

You see a reason not to commit,
And I see the only reason I have left...

... That one, final obstacle

Between myself

And death.
