For My Sister

I saw you leave for a trip of discovery I saw your face alight with such enthusiasm and delight. You set off, to explore the world around you *** While you were gone, I witnessed the utmost betrayal to you From the man, whom in a few short months, were going to exchange vows of forever love I watched in horror as the events laid out Dark and cold swirled around Me, clouding my judgment, making me crave the kill *** You came back from the trip, so happy. I felt sick knowing I was about to destroy you I opened my arms to embrace the cold and darkness, to over come me so I can go for the kill I sat you down I showed you the proof Those minutes seemed like an eternity I saw when your world turned upside down, inside out I saw your heart and soul shatter in your eyes It was then that the darkness left, and I cried with you, for it’s a pain I know all to well Though amped for it is you that is going though this A pain I would take forever just so you do not know it’s lingering existence *** Your screams and cries howled from your oozing wounds, shaking to the core You ran and enclosed your self in what use to be your sanctuary, but now nothing but ruins of lies I sat on the opposite end, listening to those howls and fade away to them *** After part of the storm of your chaos let up, I went and saw you. I went and said my final piece: “It will hurt, it will hurt so bad and you’re life will never be the same. You’ll never be able to trust so carefree, you’ll second guess everything but most importantly yourself. Those wounds will scar and be a forever reminder on your frail heart. Those wounds though, will be gorgeous and you should bare them. They are your battle marks, they will make you stronger in time. My precious darling, my adoring sister, please don’t let him put a veil over your eyes, don’t let him mask the beauty of life. Don’t let him cover your flame of passion. He is nothing more than a speck of dust flowing in the wind, do not make that dust ground you, center you. You will heal, you will conquer and destroy, and you will rise to be almighty and glorious once more, for this will pass. When you don’t feel that you can stand on your own, I’ll be there for you to lean, I will help carry you on. I’ll forever be there to help you fight if you so wish. I love you” I left this for you my sister, my most precious friend
