A Love Letter to Sister
What I Should Have Told You Years Ago
I’m proud of you, sis
For being you
I love you for who you are
Regardless of what you do
Any choice you make
I support with all of my heart
Because I trust in you
And know each choice is a part
A part of a greater whole
A chapter of your path
Your divine journey
Full of joy, curiosity, wrath
There’s no emotion you can’t feel
No situation you can’t handle
You’re my unstoppable baby sis
Do a dance, light a candle
Today we are celebrating
Your very existence
Indulge in your human BEING
Let go of any resistance
You feel fully
You love hard
Drop your walls
There’s nothing to guard
You’re divine, you know
Every freckle is an angels kiss
You leave things better than you found them
When you leave your presence people miss
An aura of strength
Mixed with a gentle soul
Energy for days
18 on University honor roll
Wants the best for this world
Embodies strength and grace
Protector of the innocent
Doesn’t eat anything with a face
Able to forgive
Doesn’t need to forget
Takes life lessons as they come
Smiles at strangers who just met
25 years old
Eyes that flicker green
The world is your playground
White light is what you beam
It’s ok
Not to have everything “figure out”
It’s ok
To take sharp turns and alternate routes
It’s ok
To get lost in your own mind
Take time to breath
Moments to unwind
You’re not just my sister
You’re a sister goddess
Divine family I choose
No need to be modest
Shine, sparkle
Talk a little too loud
Ask big questions
Of yourself, be proud
You’ve survived every situation
Each hard conversation
Remember all those times screaming
To songs on the Impala radio station
You’re loved
More than you’ll ever know
I can’t wait to watch
As you continue to grow
Physical distance isn’t a barrier
Intermittent communication will occur
Our connection is able to transcend
Of this, I am infinitely sure
Love you, Babygirl
I’m your ride or die
About to share physical space
Let’s giggle and cry
There’s space for anything
Let’s leave a little room for fun
Dance under the moon
Bask in the sun
