Sisters

sisters I have four others and you have me mom told me you were the "mother" to me you fed and carried me when I got sick you were the one who always took care of me when I got cancer and told you this was the answer I got from you suck it up and don't cry that was fine for you to say it wasn't eating you away I did just what you said I didn't cry even though it hurt really bad I didn't know when I left the hospital that night that you would take flight now I am on earth all alone sometimes I feel you left me but when I want to cry I remember "suck it up and be strong" so I carry on when life gets rough I know I have to be tough I know if I am not you will come back and kick my butt you lost a child when he was seven I hope you find him up in haven I hope that he is still seven so to my sister I say tell my "gismo" I said hello
