They never ever listen.

They only fight and play.

They make a mess around the house 

every single day.

They misbehave and be loud,

but don’t when my mother is around.

It’s difficult to keep up with them

when both have different mindsets.

“No one’s ever perfect”

to myself I always say.

Especially my siblings 

but I love them anyway.
