You left so long ago
But I remember that day perfectly
I hid in my room
So no one would see me die inside
I was torn
I want you to go and have fun
But don't leave me with them
I don't know how to handle dad
Go off and get your higher education
In Buffalo && with Sarah
I'll miss you so and
Don't forget me
[A Few Years Pass]
You listened through my tears
Over the phone and AIM
You slowly changed the subject
Over the years
From dad and Fights
To prepping me for my glorious four years
As we both grew
And got more independent
Our E-mail and phone calls fadded
When you got Stubborn and jaded
Now you have a job and a degree
While I'm stuck with your memory

ah, sad poem. It's good, though, and very relatable. Thanks for letting me read your work. Although you don't have enough green trophies to qualify in this contest, I still hope to read something from you on ways to reduce global warming over in the other contest.

Thats perfectly fine and you're right, there are sibling too. You did a great job with this. And I can understand it as well. My sister and I went through the same thing. Keep up the great work!
In order for to keep it in the contest, though, please put which option you used in the author's box, thank you. -
Oh Amber. This poem was just so great. It was so emotional. It perfectly described how relationships can fade when one of the people in them change. Really good job. I agree with Sonya, maybe you should send this to your brother...try and reconnect.

It's hard when siblings go to college. My oldest sister was in France for a year for college, and I missed her a lot. He'll never forget you though, if that makes you feel better. You're his sister, not just some friend.

My brother and I used to be really close, he would be there when my parents got into fights and stuff. He helped me get out of the house and stuff. . . i mean the first year was fine, we talked like everyday, but after that year we both knew different people and we both got stubborn. we kinda went our separate ways. I mean ya we still have an e mail every know and again, but its not what it used to be. I mean i didn't even tell him im lesbian.

ooh, that sucks. It's like losing a best friend. I've never been very close to my sisters. We get along just fine, but we don't really tell each other things. I hope you two start talking more again. Maybe you should send him this poem.
