Family
February 5, 2021
Friends come and go,
But family always stays.
Family stays even on your lowest days
And to do it, they find ways.
Protect you is what they desire
From the individual trying to do harm.
Your understanding is what they require
So, don’t be alarmed.
Sacrifices would occur
In order for you to live your best life.
Don’t stab their hearts with your own knife
Because other family is what you prefer.
Love and value what you have,
Your family might be someone else’s wish.
You were given a lot of opportunities served to you on a dish,
So grateful you should be.
