You might not be the
thinnest,
prettiest,
or
the best with advice,
according to society.

But you're
Beautiful,
perfect,
and
amazing
in my eyes.
You are my
inspiration,
my motivation,
my rock,
and most of all,

*My sister.

It started with a tree,
And when I climbed,
Nothing could stop me.
High and higher,
I went.
But the braches got
Thinner and thinner.
Until one finally snapped.
And I fell from my safety,
Right into the mouths of wolves.

Once there was a girl,
And for her whole life she hid,
Till she was no more.

Simplistic times,
When drama seemed so non-existent,
No one cared what you wore
or how you looked
Everyone would be your friend
with a new adventure around every corner.

Having the newest 'Skip-It' was more important
than the latest fashion trend.
Imaginary friends were there to keep you company when bored,
And when your bedroom door was shut,
your toys did come to life.

Magic was real,
and Never Never Land too.
But Peter Pan never came for me,
so these simplistic times,
are just a sweet memory.

Best friend
You used to say.
Back when we were young.
With no drama,
no hate.
But as time went on,
your voice faded,
and now,
all I have is a faint recollection of
"
Best Friend*"

Maybe you should try and listen
To the words that leave my mouth.
Not the things that come from others
About who I am
What I've done.
You turn your head when I try to tell you,
My thoughts and how I feel
But instead you choose to listen to them.
The ones who know my name
And definitely not my story.

You're there for me when I am weak,
When I can hardly stand on my own.

You listen to my problems;
listen to me rant and rave.

Day or night;
You won't turn me away.

Never once have we fought.
Never once have we been mad at each other.

Why?
Because, I can truly say,

You are my sister.
