You taught me many things along the way. Things I will never be able to teach you.<br /> But, there are some small things, I can do for you.<br /> I cleaned your side of the room. So you wouldn’t get in trouble.<br /> I lie to cover you, Even though it was wrong.<br /> I looked up to you every day. I wore your clothes, because I wanted to be more like you.<br /> I remember you getting angry at me for being a little brat.<br /> It’s funny now as adults, Life isn’t what it used to be.<br /> I know your secrets, Shhh… They are safe with me, until the light comes for me.<br /> When I see you in pain, it drives me insane.<br /> We may not agree every day, we may argue, and go our separate ways,<br /> But you are my big sister, ALWAYS.<br /> I love you.</p> http://www.unitedworldpoets.com/poem/big-sister#comments Poems Friend Sister Mon, 17 Jan 2011 04:16:44 +0000 zannychic2002 4643 at http://www.unitedworldpoets.com Glimpse http://www.unitedworldpoets.com/poem/glimpse <p>From the past skies<br /> Today I never thought I’d see my own eyes<br /> From the rain drop cold walk<br /> When my soul wouldn’t cry<br /> Wakin up feelin empty strayin shy to this life<br /> Everyday a missin piece to the puzzled why<br /> If I could just go back to the mud puddle of my life<br /> My brother my sister and my sister was there<br /> But today not a one of the three is near<br /> With my back against the wall<br /> I’m in debt to my one and only fear</p> http://www.unitedworldpoets.com/poem/glimpse#comments Urban Poems Brother Sister Wed, 05 Jan 2011 06:24:42 +0000 Solo 4234 at http://www.unitedworldpoets.com
