    Sister Like You

    I know you've grown up with no brothers or sisters,
    I know it was only you and your mother for so many years,
    I know your whole life story from the only point of view I can trust; your mother's,
    I know everything; even your worst fears,

    I've seen you grow up through pictures, stories, and your mother's eyes,
    I've seen you at the worst and best of days,
    I've held you when your eyes were brimming with tears; Holding you tight against the world's unfair lies,
    I've been watching you through a loving gaze,

    I'm proud to have you as my little sister,
    I love everything about you,
    Even if you make the house look like it's been hit by a twister,
    And I want you to know the love I have for you is true,

    I love the way you look up to me,
    I love how you try to teach me how to understand how you feel at the good and bad times,
    I love seeing you smile with glee,
    And how your eyes glisten with joy alot of times,

    I'm proud of how far you've come,
    I'm always here to protect you from anything that scares you,
    I love you so much and then some,
    I'm happy to have a sister; but ecstatic to have a sister like you.

    beautiful poem

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
