Older Sister
My older sister is a great person
inside and out,
and just like sisters do
we argue, fuss, and shout
My older sister always stuck up for me,
but sometimes I think that
we're not as close as we use to be
My older sister showed, and taught me some things,
and she loved me just as much as
a rich woman loves diamond rings
My older sister, and I went through some hell
as far as going to Tennessee then getting caught,
and the same day going to jail
My older sister would hold me when I cried
wiping my tears away,
and I knew to her I could run and hide
My older sister is beautiful, and has a voice of an angel
she can really sing,
and she gives me goose bumps
anytime she sang anything
My older sister I look up to,
because she's on the right path,
and she has me beat
by well over half
My older sister was my best friend,
but I feel like I lost her,
and she now has two kids, and a husband
My older sister I still adore,
and don't shut me out,
because I still need you more, and more
My older sister no one can take her place
it just makes me so happy
every time I get to see your face
My older sister has a family of her own,
but I'm still here too, and just to see her
a million miles I would've flown
My older sister is not very much older than me,
and we were more like best friends than sisters
well we use to be
My older sister I hope she doesn't hate me,
because I run away from my problems, and make bad choices,
but I hope she knows that I am still me
My older sister should know
I love her with all of my heart,
and sometimes I wish we were still kids,
so we rarely had to be apart
My older sister I want you to know
that I miss you and me,
and how close we were,
and the way things use to be
My older sister who I love so much,
and these feelings I am trying to show
hoping that you love me back, and we're still us
please let me know
