For My Sister
You've been my strength
My heartache
My soul
Deep within my broken heart
You will always be remembered
Because,
I could not have been
without your love
Your silent support
Your guidance
When I needed you to survive
you were there for me
And I will never leave your side
Nor in life or in death
We are bonded in blood
And genetic inheritance
None the less
We are bonded forever
By our love, life, family
And our everlasting memories
Rest in Peace my beloved sister
I know you are here in spirit to walk beside me
Love and cherish you,
Lynn
