If Only You Could Have Stayed
Constantly thinking
Of what could have been
What you would look like
What should have been
I will never understand
Why you had to go
You were taken away from him, from me
This is the heart wrenching truth I now know
Perhaps, you would have been cruel,mean or a b****?
Don't think it would have mattered much cause we have the same blood, same bond -that's no trick
No,surely, I know you would have be kind, stubborn but true
You would be the one there, my strong beacon of light
You would be there to rock to me to sleep at night
Assure me everything will be okay and wipe any burning tears that dare to take flight
But, I can't dwell on the past
Or the future that can never be
Now I had to step up and do the job
You would have done instead of me
But, the forever idea of having you by my side
Will always make my heart warm right inside
My big, lost sister
If only you could have stayed
Loved but never lost
The sister, I just never knew
