Sister's Love Poem by Carol Tepana

As I watch every sunrise & sunset with you,
I saw in your eyes the pain you hide,
For you were riding a roller coaster ride.
With many twist & turns ups & downs
like a whirlpool swerving around.
For there were times you wore a frown,
And your silence is louder then your cry
from deep inside it's hidden behind your eyes.
I look at photos of you in youthful time,
smiles laughter and living life to it's fullest.
I saw the anger frustration and confusion which reared from time to time.
But still you will rise every morning to shine to take in the fresh morning air.
Do your daily chores until you couldn't anymore.
The darkness was drawing near soon I knew I will face that fear of losing you.
But I love you and always will from the moon & back.
You knew the time & place as the world around you race by,
you heard distant chatter and vague outlines of people lurking around you.
You could hear them talk about you but never to you.
I miss you we miss you so before I leave to go to bed
I want to say 'THANK YOU' for all the lessons and love nurture and tenderness support most of all it was your L.O.V.E a sister's love given to her baby.
