Between the Lines

I see her in the mirror,
as years continue on.
My face it seems has taken on
the look of one who's gone.

Each morning she appears to me
though eyes are damp in thought,
remembering  the way we shared,
the happiness it brought.

Thinking of her, just a bit
this day when troubles loom,
the mirror speaks to me in ways
that she would, if in room.

Faith, it was her middle name,
and lived it till the end.
More than just a sister,
she was always my best friend.

You were lucky to have such a wonderful sister. I always wished I would have had a sister, actually I had two sisters (Both born when my mother was getting older) one was autistic and the other had Down's syndrom.
