Jonathan Thornton Poet Free verse

I Need Her

When I fall asleep,
It's eleven at night.
Most of the time,
I cry to sleep.
But sometimes,
I don't get the chance.

When I close my eyes,
I can see her
Laying there so lifeless.
I know she can feel me,
Staring at her.
And now I can feel her,
Staring down at me.

I know she wants me
To be happy.
But I can't without her
Right by my side.
Right here,
Where a sister belongs.

I need you,
Come help me.
I need you,
To tell me what to do.
I can't live alive.
There's people who love me,
But not like a brother.

We would have been great,
We would have been the best.
Just like
A brother and sister should be.
I wish you were here.
I need you here.
Right here
Where a sister belongs.
Where my sister belongs.
