To my sister...
July 13, 2019
They say if you love someone let them go
but then why did I want to cling tight
to the girl that was with me for 15 years
in every heartbreak, test grade or fight
Perhaps I was afraid that she would change
a new home away from home
but no our bonds were way to tight
she was ready to be alone
But alas I was the foolish one
and when I let go, she drifted away
Now no more time for her little sis
not even the time of day
My partner, my accomplice , my closest friend
I miss you day and night
But change can be a good thing to
Isnt that right?

This poem is dedicated to my sister. When she went away to college we drifted apart but luckily we have made amends
