Sister


We only skim the surface always cautious ever wary
Never moving too deeply
From ourselves in fear of each other

There is so much more we have to offer
But fear overwhelms the need to discover
And frustration follows every time

Good thing blood’s thicker than water
Or you might never see me again

Dear sister,I love you, don’t you know,
No friend you could ever have
Will ever love you more

You question my ways as I attack your fears
I hide my broken heart and wipe away the tears
Our pride is too strong and only grows through the years

There is so much more we have to offer
But fear overwhelms the need to discover
And frustration follows every time

Good thing blood’s thicker than water
Or you might never see me again

Sister, sweet sister,I love you, don’t you know,
No friend you could ever have
Will ever love you more

I’ll always love you more.
