Maybe a brother and a sister would be best for all / Two sisters had so much in common / Now they don't know each other at all / You thought that they'd grow closer with age / You were mistaken, they'll go to their graves apart / Not regretting what they didn't do / Never missing the sister that they never knew / Maybe the friendly sibling myth is a scam / I don't know any siblings that walk around holding hands / Maybe we all expect too much of them / Not only to be sisters but also to be friends. Benjamin Michael Lee
Look how the same possibilities / unfold in their opposite demeanors, / as though one saw different ages / passing through two identical rooms. / Each thinks that she props up the other, / while resting wearily on her support; / and they can't make use of one another, / for they cause blood to rest on blood, / when as in the former times they softly touch / and try, along the tree-lined walks, / to feel themselves conducted and to lead; / ah, the ways they go are not the same. The Sisters

How lovely the elder brother’s / Life all laced in the other’s, / Lóve-laced!—what once I well / Witnessed; so fortune fell. / When Shrovetide, two years gone, / Our boys’ plays brought on / Part was picked for John, / Young Jóhn: then fear, then joy / Ran revel in the elder boy. / Their night was come now; all / Our company thronged the hall; / Henry, by the wall, / Beckoned me beside him: / I came where called, and eyed him / By meanwhiles; making my play / Turn most on tender byplay. Gerard Manley Hopkins
Equality is absolute or no. / Nothing between can stand. We are the sons / Of the same sire, or madness breaks and runs / Through the rude world. Ridiculous our woe / If single pity does not love it. So / Our separate fathers love us. No man shuns / His poorest child's embrace. We are the sons / Of such, or ground and sky are soon to go. Mark Van Doren
