For Gina

We made a pact beneath the weight
Of years that tested love and fate
Not carved in stone, but stitched in thread
Soft words we whispered, tears we shed.
The world around us spins and sways,
With health that falters, hearts that fray.
But through the noise, we hold one line:
Your soul and mine, forever twined.
For Scott—the light we both adore,
We built a bridge, we opened doors.
A superhero in our rhyme,
He anchors us through space and time.
The silence broke, a subtle clinch
But hearts like ours don’t hold a grudge, not even an inch
I came because I missed your laugh,
Your fierce, unfiltered autograph.
We’ve weathered storms, we’ve bent, not snapped—
Our love, our bond, forever wrapped.
No mood, no moment, no sharp reply
Can break the vow we made that night.
So here we stand, pact in our hands,
Not perfect, but it understands.
You and me, through thick and thin—
Aunt and niece, and next of kin.
