Sister Cuzin

I looked in her face, hers was nothing like mine.Chocolate I, caramel she, our 
differences we don't see. 
her hair short, mine extended 2 be long, yet our spirits 2 one another are drawn
 
cuz her day, pain and gripe is the same 1's that got me looking 2 the creator for 
insight. 
as young women we were taught how to be homemakers cater to my man and my kids first.In 
the years we live in and are sure to see 
that kind of reality
 would have ur insides dying spiritually and emotionally
This young women i speak of upon first meeting, spoke volumes 2 me.
I admired her mind,take on life, giving spirit
telling the silly men in her life to come correct becuz u know she doesn't want 2 hear it.
Normally the catty of ladies, would lead me into a shut door of maybes about her 
character,somehow we broke down those wall so that we could see exactly who and what was 
standing awaiting entrance through the front door.
Every time i see sister cuzin i know she knows exactly whats on my mind, she greets me 
with a sweet smile and embrace, let me know quick where to locate the food, smoke and 
liquors in my leisure i am free 2 sip
sister cuzins, i luv mine do u luv urs.
Carrying the world on her back saving u constantly from mishaps, in tune with ones 
shortcomings and sometimes indiscretions.
Seems sister cuzins always wanna take on the world. Always looking 4 luv, but seems we 
stay just being some ones girl.
I come to u with sincere vision, sis
I see ur light, but i warn u, some folks, all they will do is dis it 
Direspect, disspondent ready 2 disregard u and ur accomplishments at a flick of the wrist.
I know u sis,
 ur hand strong and steady, 
never ever giving these clowns ammunition to dim it 
ur lightI mean. 
anybody who is anybody knows that in your heart and good graces is 
the place one longs to be.
