My Sister

Why do you laugh when I cry, Why do you me feel like I no longer want to try? Why do I let you in again and again, When you do not seem to know the definition of friend? Why do I let you touch my heart, When over and over again you have torn it apart? How can I ever trust anyone, When my Sister judges me everything I have ever done? Every word I have spoken, every decision I have made, You have made sure my soul has paid. You hurt me and destroy me, On purpose and out of spite it does surely seem. How can my Sister distress me so, When I hit an emotional high, she has to bring me low. Yet to you I still cling, With unbreakable hope, that it is joy you will one day, once again bring. I have shed a million tears and will gladly shed a million more, If you would just love me like you have before. Please let me just observe you once again, Please don't let our path come to this end. Let me be happy for you... Show you there is nothing you can't do. Let me watch you and once again toddle in your footsteps and paths, Let me rejoice in your beautiful laugh. Once again be the Sister I once knew, Because all the days I have seen convince me this is true... If I could choose a Sister...it would be you!
