Best Sorrysister Poems


Im So Sorry

im sorry i never told you that i was a intimidated by you

the way you talked and walked and acted so strong

when i ran away you were left alone to deal with the ramifications of my life

you were just a little girl and i abanded you

we were best of friends as well as sisters but i left you all alone

you found out you had cancer and it tore you apart

a 13 year old young girl forced to face the world alone

im sorry i was a coward and lied to you about my life

the things i did were embarressing and i was out of my mind

i couldn't hold your hand or wipe away your tears

i wasn't there to comfort you or tell you it's all right

i never lied about loving you that was always true

inside  my head i was dead and didn't want to destroy you

your best friend died and you were a wreck

again i wasn't there but never did a day go by that i didn't care

you had two children through the years and this aunt wasnt's around

they grew up not knowing that your sister loved them so

you struggle with pain on an everyday basis and im three thousand miles away

i ruined our relationship once again when i told you i was gay

the drugs destroyed my inner being to the point of no return

i did the worst and hurt the best but never no more than i betrayed you

im so sorry little sister that words are not enough 

id trade my life today to take all my ugliness away

behind these eyes lies a remorseful soul longing to love you and make this whole

i try to reach out and talk to you but you never answer my call

i guess this is all my fault for hurting you long ago

in time thats your time ill be waiting here to see your face and hear your voice

saying that you still care

i love you sister!!!

My New Home

I stand in the rain, my heart filled with pain
My clothes are covered with many bloodstains
I look to the sky and begin to cry
The heavens never opened when I was alive
 
So why would they open now? To Him I still cannot bow
For God has watched as my life has dwindled down
And crumbled to nothing, yet I’m still left wanting
I’ve accepted death, yet I’m still looking for something
 
I fall to my knees, I beg and plead
I need to go to heaven and see
My sister to tell her, I’m sorry I never
Understood when she said I needed to be better
 
She kept telling me my lies, and helpless cries
Would take me nowhere, and yet I never tried
To hear what she said, now I’m close to dead
The concrete underneath my final bed
 
The water hits my face, a man fallen from grace
I can’t stop the blood from spreading all over the place
I’ll never see Heaven’s gates, the clouds never break
I cannot amend for all my mistakes
 
This is why I made a fist, no longer thinking of risks,
I took the knife and cut deep into my wrists
The pain is overbearing, draining, wearing
I’m numb to it all, I’ve completely stopped caring
 
The Devil joyously shouts, I can hear him cry out
My soul was always his, there was never any doubt
I did too much wrong, I was never strong
Heaven was a place I never belonged
 
I tell my sister I’m sorry, I don’t want her to worry
I hope she can hear me, but the Devil’s in quite a hurry
I hear the sirens bells, people calling for help
But I’ve already left for my new home…Hell.
