my sister wrote this poem

it made me cry. go liz!! :D



sometimes
you feel so far away
distant shores,
crowded cities,
a million lives away.
and though i know you're always here.
you disappear sometimes
fade into the background of an ordinary day
of lifes pain and struggles

but i always find you,
i always know i will.

black and white scenes
our memories, our struggles
the lessons youve taught me
the way you so profoundly
touched my life.

how can i find the words
to express
the bond we have,
the comfort and security i feel with you
the youth and innocent joy
the contented smile

you taught me what was right.
saved me from what was wrong
and protected me.

how can i find one single,
closed, stifled word.
to express that which is free, light, majestic, and glorious?

you are my sister.
and i love you.
and i miss you.

come back soon.
