For the Love of a Sister

I'd like everyone to meet my sister she's beautiful can't you see it might just be in the eye of the beholder, but it makes no difference to me We shared a lot when we were young..the bed included too, and sis I remember the bond that was made, because I slept with my arm around you Then one night mom said.... " kid go to bed" and it would be on this night you see, that I would cry my eyes out until it hurt because you weren't going to bed with me This would be the beginning of the end of an innocence that was so carefree, Because my tears dried up and washed away the pain confined in me "Time will heal a broken heart".. this saying is a fallacy.. it merely added to the emptiness of my emotional state of being. Now we are grown, separate towns, separate homes, turns out we're very different indeed But sometimes when I'm feeling life has left me all alone, I can feel your arms around me. From one sister to another...
