Sisters

While growing up as a child I had a lot of friends but I did not have any true friends cos they would always disappoint me somehow. Maybe thats the way the cookie crumbles (and it crumbles like crazy, no kidding...lol) people disappoint mostly and they leave. Anyhow I realized that I did not need friends in school, nor in college or anywhere else cos I have three beautiful sisters who are always there for me, come sunshine or rain. They are my best friends and when I realized that, I simply stopped looking elsewhere (even though we fight like crazy..lol). Thats why I wrote a poem about my relationship with my sisters and I guess anyone who shares the same type of bond that I share with my sisters will totally agree with me. This poem is an ode to all the sisters in the world. I am happy to state that the real essence of love and trust in any relationship always emerges from within your family, ashes to ashes!!

She is my adorable sister.
A little bit temperamental, a wee bit emotional, just the right mix.
She is my life, my light during my darkest hours.
My family, the family that I seek.
She defines my existence by being herself, by just being there.
I lose my way sometimes but she tells me how.
There are times when I wont budge,
she is the one who always makes me laugh
Whenever I lose my faith in god, in life, on myself
I just take one look at her and start fighting with myself
I fight with her, she fights with me
but I dont care cos she is there.
The swift uplifting rush that recedes
She is also a a part of that force beneath
Bright and pretty as she is
She also has her dark secrets and dreams
I pray to god she succeeds her dreams
Cos there is nothing that I want more
Gold and Silver, none have I
but I have a sister as precious as thine
I pray to God to keep us together
and be the wind beneath our wings.
