Zoe-My Guardian Angel

My little girl, my angel
Here on earth without wings
I love you so much
You’re a part of me
In so many ways

Not only my niece,
Not just my best friend
I love you like a sister and daughter
And always will, with no end.

It’s my job to protect you
And look after you forever
You’ll always be my baby
Even when you’re big enough
To wear my favorite sweater

Protect you and look after you
I always will
When I’m with you all the storms of life
Suddenly are so still.

No guy could ever break my heart
When you’re holding me tight in your arms
It doesn’t matter if we’ve been together for a week or a year
When I’m with you he can do no harm

Over the summer when I was missing my mom
My tears, you’re fingers would dry.
For some one so young, you have such a personality
You’re so silly, and when you put us together,
We laugh until we cry.

Think about our ages, seventeen and eight
Nine years apart, only nine years I had to wait
All my life I wished for a little sister
Now I realize I got you instead
You’re so grown up though,
It seems like you’re the one tucking me into bed.

You’re always there to hold me,
When I’m feeling down
I’ll always be there for you too.

I hear people talk of this relationship among sisters
A relationship I never knew
Although I have two older sisters
They’re too much older,
So this relationship I never knew,
Not until I found you.
