To My Little Sister

To my Lil Sister Lil sister your 19 now and I just wanted to put make up words on paper for you/A couple things for you to remember/ A couple things I hope you'll do/ in life there are two significant dresses you'll wear, the one you'll wear to your wedding and when the you'll wear to your funeral/ so make each dress you wear in between purposeful/ God made you the person you are so know that you are inexorably beautiful/ Flawless to no end/ Fall victim to no sin/ you are your mothers daughter it is in your dna to dress as a purposeful woman/ Lil Sister/ Their are going to times when your heart feels like life is cutting into it with the precise precision of a surgeon/struggle bring the depression so make sure that your faith is certain/ Live every day as if you were Jesus/ Live every day like your the star of the best filming feature/ Lil Sister/ there is going to be a war and nothing I say can prepare you for/ but just know that every prayer that our mother and father does for you is a knock on the Gods door/ Keep your faith and know that your not 19 years young your 19 years powerful.
