Never say goodbye you're not out of my life,
Never shed a tear when you're struggling with strife,
I am by your side, never doubt nor deny me,
I am in your heart and it's there where you'll find me,
I am that quiet voice you hear in your head,
I am the one that is laughing at the words that you said,
Never miss me when you think of the times that we shared,
Never doubt for a second that I never cared,
I was the one who was hurting when your pain was so strong,
I was the one who felt guilty when something went wrong,
I was the one that was looking when you would no longer look,
I was the ears that listened for as long as it took,
Never think you're alone when you're facing your fears,
Never think you're alone when your're lost in your tears,
I am the one who is smiling in the corner of your eye,
I am the one who won't question or even ask why,
I am the voice that keeps talking when you hurt to much to speak,
I am the one whoe keeps on searching when you can no longer seek,
Never think seperation will destroy or divide,
Never think for a moment our friendship has died,
I am your sister, your shadow, your reflection, your soul,
A place in your heart is the home that I stole,
Never say goodbye , we are never apart,
Never say goodbye while you still have a heart.

I have no siblings, but my wife has nine. I'm sure she would love this even more than I. My compliments for a very good piece.

Very well done, you should be comended on this piece, thank you for sharing. It was very well formed in good rythym and rhyme and everything flowed together as smooth as honey.

I could insert "daughter" for "sister" and it's my relationship with my Mother.  I needed to read this tonight .. Rita, if you are around still -- Thank you.
