My Sister

My Sister

Scared and alone,
crying and fighting.
I didn’t want it to end,
my family my home,
forever torn apart.

My family changing,
my life rearranging,
never to be the same again,
lost in the dark,
of long forgotten memories.

But now I see the truth,
that’s not what was meant to be.
I’ve found a true friend now,
my sister you’ll forever be.

I didn't know then,
as I do now.
My family separated,
to bring you to me.

You've been a friend and ally,
a playmate and pal.
You've been true and caring,
kind and loving.

I’m grateful for your smile,
and your sweet understanding.
I'm grateful for the laughs and
for all the good times.

I'm grateful for you're happiness
and the joy you bring.
I’m grateful for the memories,
of you and me.

I’m sorry I didn’t see it before,
what great friends we could be,
but I see it now,
and you're my best friend.

I can tell you anything,
jokes and laughs and more.
I share secrets with you,
and, as far as I know,
you've told me them before.

I thank god for bringing you to me,
you’re my angel,
you’re my sister,
and hopefully forever
you will be....
