There’s a weight on your heart, a storm in your mind,
But every tear that falls, is a step you’ll find.
Don’t let the darkness make you feel small,
Each drop is a step, you’ll rise from it all.
You don’t have to hide what you’re feeling inside,
Those tears aren’t a weakness, they’re a guide.
Every time they fall, they show you the way,
Taking you closer to a brand new day.
Luminous tears, they light your way,
Leading you forward, helping you stay.
Every drop, a step ahead,
Turning pain into strength, like it was said.
Luminous tears, don’t fear the fall,
Each one is a step that will help you stand tall.
When the road feels long, and the night feels cold,
Remember, each tear has a story untold.
They’re not the end, but a sign to believe,
That every heartache will help you achieve.
So let them fall, don’t run from the pain,
Each tear is a promise, breaking the chains.
You’re stronger with every drop you shed,
Every tear’s a step toward what lies ahead.
Luminous tears, they light your way,
Leading you forward, helping you stay.
Every drop, a step ahead,
Turning pain into strength, like it was said.
Luminous tears, don’t fear the fall,
Each one is a step that will help you stand tall.
Every tear you’ve cried, is a mark of your fight,
They’ve painted your path, lighting up the night.
With each drop, you’ve become more than you knew,
Stronger, braver, with a heart that’s true.
The road may be rough, but it’s shaping your soul,
Every tear is a step towards making you whole.
So let them fall, don’t be afraid,
For every tear you shed, a new strength is made.
You’re building the person you’re meant to be,
With every tear, you’re closer to being free.

You've gone so far away from me...
Now someone I don't seem to see.
And I have to let it be.

You went away
and I can't make you stay.
Yet you still make me pay everyday.

For it's your choice to do so,
Just know there isn't a place I wouldn't go,
If you asked I'd certainly glow.

Like the biggest cow to make you laugh,
I'm here forever on your path.
Any who hurts you will fear my wrath.

It hurts to see you distance
yourself with instistance.
Your verdict on me is an injustice.

So I'll wait for growth,
maybe some for us both.
Someday you'll see I'm not to lowth.

I'm sorry,
Please forgive me,
Thank you,
I love you.

I'm glad that it was me.

When the moon turned dark
And you didn't know what you wanted to be
When you hadn't left your mark
I put the blame on me

When the scale started to tilt
And blood was all I could see
I watered your flower to not wilt
And kept mine away from the sea

In the silence between heartbeats
There's a loyalty I must keep
No matter how much I bleed
No matter how much I weep

And when you cause me pain
It means nothing
Because although you understand me
I guess that means something

If I hadn't been blamed
For something I didn't do
If you had been blamed instead
Who knows what you would do

I will carry this pain from mountain to fjord
If it means you will succeed
If it means that you are alive today
Then I know it was meant to be.

I'm glad that it was me.
I am solely a sponge that soaks up sin

i’m inherently sad.
i’ll never get better.
i’ll **** myself right now
so i won’t be forced to feel this way later.
and no one will notice
or even shed a tear
in fact, it will be ages before anyone notices i was ever even here.
and if someone cares enough to ask why or
“who did this to you?”
i’ll simply point one long, broken finger at you.
and the world will see,
they’ll all understand
i did my best by you but i was only a kid
so how am i meant to escape you if you’re embedded into my lungs?
how am i supposed to love you if you grew into a stranger when you grew up?

You have always been the place I run—
when the house shook with anger,
when silence was too sharp to bear,
when I need to remember who I am.

You walked ahead, unbreakable,
taking the weight so I could be light,
standing in the storm so I could have sun.

I learned from your triumphs,
but more from your wounds—
ones I watched you carry,
ones you never let me feel.

You have been the steel in my spine,
the edge in my voice,
the force that made me fearless.
I only get to walk through this world soft
because you stood in it hard.

Life has tried to wear you down,
but nothing bends you, nothing breaks you.
Tough as stone, soft as a whisper only I get to hear.

The world takes from you,
but I have only ever been given.
You deserve love that does not take,
a world that bows before your strength.

Everything I am, everything I have,
is because you stood,
because you fought,
because you have always been
the force that made me free.
At times i feel like an only child, weird thing to say when you have so many siblings you love with your whole heart. However i get to feel that because i have an only sister who has been the entire definition of a big sister my whole life. The things we have been through together and separately. My entire life from my first memory to my last...i have learned from my sister in everything she does. I have watched her in awe, sometimes i even tried protecting her.  At 33 i would take the same hits i tried to take when i was 7 if it meant she didn't have to feel any of it.

Some people say sisters are like blisters that just won't go away
They irritate and bother you after you once rubbed them the wrong way
They say sisters are like stickers like a thorn in your side
They tear you up embarrass you and strip away your pride
They say sisters are like liquors they burn, confuse, and sting
They take control of your thoughts and manipulate your dreams
They say sisters are not worth it they should be your greatest enemy
You should never let them be a friend or it will all just end in jealousy
But i have one a sister i mean
And i can't agree with all these things
Because if a sister is a blister then she's a band-aid too
While she sometimes will be a bother she chooses to patch it up and heal you two
And if a sister is a sticker then she is tweezers too
She might be a thorn in you but she’ll try and pull the pain out of the wound
Once she realizes she created a hurtful groove
And if a sister is like liquor that burns you to your core
Than a sister is like nectar that sweetens and restores
She may insult, you, sting you, confuse you or lash out in the moment
But her kind words mean so much more
And her heart is truly in it
So sure let your sister be competition and see how much you lose
If you let jealousy rule your relation than yeah
Your relationship won't produce any fruit
But if you approach her with love, selflessness, patience, and gratitude
I think you'll find a sweet soul and beautiful mind lurks under her rocky surface
And not only that but a life long friend to hold your hand in the darkness
So maybe a sister can be a struggle a blister, thorn, or burn
But more than that a sister is someone who loves you always, so much, for sure.
It won't always be easy, pretty, simple, or picturesque
But a sister is oh so worth it so just know i think you're the best

Sat in my Mother’s Cadillac
Heated seat warm
Just finished my prayers
Watching the entrance door
I have a sister

Trying to still my rapid heart
And fight back building tears
Waiting for this moment
For more than a year
I have a sister

When I read the obituary
Of our estranged father
Survived by a daughter
Stopped me at my core
I have a sister

I wonder if you are sitting
Anxious in your car  
Starring at the door
Gathering courage
To meet your sister.

i wish i was an only child
but sometimes i dont
my sister
she shares
she loves
she laughs
but all i respond with is a hit
a yell
a scream
all i am is mean
and sometimes i wish
she was an only child
love your siblings
