The Other Jeans

We have the same eyes
the same thick un-tamable hair
the same quick tempers
and unspoken words
 
We have the same skin
and laugh lines
and large hips
and milk allergies
 
and every time i see you
I wonder if I have the same
future as well
 
do I have your marriage problems
your communication problems
when I'm older will my children
be scared of me too
 
will they leave in a car crying
like we did
will I scream at my sister
till my voice in raw
 
and will I cry every night for
a different life
