You Have My Heart

You were my best friend. 
We did everything together, even the hard stuff. We took care of each other when times got 
rough and when times were fun you were still there with me. 
Then one day i found out that there was somethign wrong, not everything was ok...but i 
knew eventually it would be. I tryed to help and get closer to you but you pulled away. Guilt 
began to sweep over me. I will always love you but not in the same way that i did 
before...because things are not as they were before. You are diffrent, i am diffrent, and the 
world is diffrent. You are my friend. But no longer my best friend. You have my heart, and 
anyone that wants my heart will have to take it from you. It will be hard to ever get close to 
anyone like i was close to you because of the fact that you were the closest thing to perfect 
that i had ever seen. I hope that some of the old you rubbed off on me. If i am the least bit 
like you were, i would feel like i complete person. You are amazing. Beautiful, 
honest,caring...and all those qualities that i wish i could have. I love you with all of my heart, 
thats why i gave it to you. I know you will keep it safe and not let anyone hurt it, because 
that would mean to hurt me.I love you forever.Sister and friend.
