Sissy.

I miss your big brown eyes,
and your beautiful curly hair.
I miss staying at your house,
and how I'd always leave covered in your dogs' hair.

I miss your smile,
I miss your stare.
Oh, how I miss your laugh,
and the way you cared.

I miss going to work with you,
I even remember my job.
You'd make me scrub the floor,
wall to wall.

I'm sure you thought I was annoying,
when I was a little kid.
I always followed you around,
I even copied what you did!

I've always thought you were the coolest,
you were a role model to me.
I wanted to be the best little sis,
I wanted you to be proud of me.

I hate that you're gone.
I just wish it was all a dream.
But knowing it's not,
just makes me want to scream.

It wasn't supposed to be this way.
We should've grown old together.

Everyone says, "There's a reason for everything."
That it's all a part of God's plan.
It just makes me so sad.
It's like nobody understands.

You weren't just a lost.
You were so much more.
A part of me just died,
the night the corner walked through the door.


I wrote that when I was eleven.
So, it's probably not the best.

  1. I thought this was really good.

    It made me tear up,
    you've been through hell & back,
    yet you're still one of the strongest people I know.

    I admire and look up to you so much, dear.

    I love you!
