Sister

by Stephanie

I know what a true sister is all about
The one you can share all your secrets with
Trusting them not to tell anyone
The one who believes in you when you are in trouble
The one who is always there for you
But for me, well, that's not my sister.
My sister doesn't believe me when I am in trouble
My sister is not always there for me
The one I can go to when I've had a bad day at school
Or just knowing I always have a shoulder to cry on
I don't have a sister to entrust with my secrets
I cry knowing I don't have a sister who takes even
a minute from her life just to say hi to me.
But i guess it's just a fantasy. I live knowing I will
never have the sister I've always wanted.
All I need now is a family that loves me for
who I am and not what they want me to be.
I just have to accept that in my life she will
never be there when i grow up and have kids.
If that is Jesus' plan for me in life
I just have to accept it and not think twice about it.
