A Sister's Love : Love Poetry

What would it be like without a sister?

There were times I would wonder.

I asked myself, just what would it be like

not to hear the stairs bang like thunder?

To not have her in my closet

or scrounging what is mine.

To not have her share the attention

nor listen to her whine.

Since you always want what you can’t have

I want my sister back in my face!

I don’t want to know the reality

of not having my sister in this place.

I want her pounding on the bathroom door

in the early morning rush.

I want her asking me dumb questions

and borrowing all my stuff.

I want my sister here with me

to share my joy as I walk with time.

As I move forward to my future

and chase the dreams that are mine.

I want you to know, my sister, for you…

I will not only live my life, I will live it out loud !

I promise to enjoy life for both of us

and I vow, I will make you proud.

I will carry you within me forever

and listen as you speak to my heart

because, I love you so much, Andrea

and a sister’s love… will never part.
