Little sister Though you never know it, I will always sit, over you Protecting you as I never was, Spare you, maybe from terror known To me, nothing I can flee Deep in me, now without cure But you’ll see, everything will be alright, I stay up all night, if you want Don’t cry, nightmares fade, Life is hard, indeed, But take stead in this; I will always be there. My duty as big brother, Instilled by loving mother, Nothing I deny, To uphold till I die. You heal the pain in me, Bright eyes, contagious smile Childhood innocence, Mine long lost, what a cost! Grace fades, glory notwithstanding Hell may freeze, but I’d crawl on my knees, Before I let the disease infect you, as well. My wounds run deep, no matter the light you give me, I’ll never be alright, but for you I fight. ------------------------------- "Glory is fading, but obscurity is forever." |

The unspoken bind between siblings comes out in full view in this poem. Great poem. Lucidity is the answer to all problems |

This is a beautiful poem. I've always wanted a big brother. Your sister is lucky to have you! "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." -Oscar Wilde |

deranger your poem made me feel better. My little sister died little under a year ago and I miss her like crazy. It's good to know there's someone else who doesn't hate their siblings. Check out my poem, Baby Emily. Thanx the dark angel |
