Not too long ago, I lost someone close to me.
She was a friend, and a family member.
She took a small piece of my heart with her when she left.
A numbness came over me the day my sister moved away. And I refused to cry for fear that she might see.
I force myself to smile, knowing that she's back where she belongs. She's happy there with her other family, so that's where she should be. . . right?
I try to remember that I'm not the only one here who misses her, but it's hard not to throw a kind of 'pity party'.
. . . . .
She's home now, and so am I.
Our homes are different, our families too, but I'll love her forever. No matter what.
she's still MY sister.
and I'll always miss her.
