You're a ******** ***** Aiming to be (as we all are) rich. You're brazen and bold, With a heart of tarnished gold. Subdued, yet still a wild thing. Struggling, but learning. You're growing quicker than I realize; Your mature-immaturity still comes as a surprise. You lead a charmed life, Yet it's challenged with strife. It's hard to accept that things Can't be as perf as diamond rings. But one day it'll click Like a heavy sack of bricks. And you'll understand that Life Is merely a show, Filled with people and places that come and go.

For Christmas I'm writing my family poems. This one is for my sister, although I can't seem to write one that I like well enough to actually give to her. Any suggestions?
