Well, little sis-I need to let you know Life isn't a simple open doorway There's its up and downs, Painful stings, Emotional roller coaster, And Harsh lessons But this entire time- I've been attempting to follow my heart Clutching to my dreams Doing what I thought was right Not being dictated by someone else's words Even when the bleakness pulled in.
So, little sis, don't give up Your dream-filled goals Don't just sit there and wait! Because it will not get any easier Don't you look back now Don't follow me- Please ride on your own path I'm still here, No one is going to push you down. Life isn't an open books So open it with your own strength.
I wrote this to my little sister in 2007, and rewrote it 7/17/13 and today.
