Well
To me in this poem I think she is talking about the love for her sister. I
am doing a report on Emily Dickinson. I like her poems.

I first thought of my close friendships, and found this poem explained the
differences and similarities between sisters of blood and of the heart.
Emily Dickinson's poetry has never failed to amaze me.

The Sister in the house is her sister, Lavinia. The second sister she
refers to is Susan Huntington Dickinson (married to her brother, Austin),
whom she shared an intimate friendship with and lived nextdoor ("One, a
hedge away"). As evidenced in the last words - "Sue, forevermore!", they
shared a very close and personal relationship that has only recently come
to light in the book, "Open Me Gently" a collection of letters written to
Susan by Emily.
Of her more than 99 correspondants, she wrote to Susan more times than any
of them over their 40 years of friendship.

In this poem I think she is talking about one of her sisters that had died
or something

In the first stanza she says, "One Sister have I in our hous, And one A
hedge away. There's only one recorded, but both belong to me." This makes
me wonder if she had one real sister and the other was adopted or somehow
welcomed into the family.
