School-wide Poetry Month: Day Twenty-Six (Bria)

I chose "Us" because today is my sister's birthday and she is turning 18. I also pick this poem because me and my sister always disagree. I would love my sister to see this because this does show how much I love my her. Happy birthday Chelsea!

Us 
Me and him
Him and me,
We're always together
As you can see.
I wish he'd leave
So I'd be free
I'm getting a little bit
Tired of he,
And he may be a bit
Bored with me.
On movies and ladies
We cannot agree.
I love to dance
He loves to ski.
He loves the mountains
I love the sea.
I like hot chocolate
He wants his tea.
I want to sleep
He has to pee.
He's meaner and duller
And fatter than me.
But I guess there's worse things
We could be--
Instead of two we could be three,
Me and him
Him and me.
