You cared for me, when no one else seemed
To wanna know about what I wanted and dreamed.
You held me close, when I was scared and trembling
And it gives me such joy to keep remembering
The love you showed me.
You're always there, when I need a shoulder
You've always been my one immovable boulder.
No matter the distress and duress,
You've always known how to calm me, you're the best
And all I wanna say is; Thank you, and I love you.
You might just say its part of being my sister,
But even the bonds of blood don't seem to insist for
You to take on my burdens as if they're your own
And lead me through my troubles, never to leave me alone.
I never like going to others for help
Cos I always believe I can handle it myself.
But it seems no matter how much I try to hide it
You always seem to know when my life's gone to shit.
I know I'm not always the best that a brother could be
But you never seem to blame me for always being me.
I never seem to be able to tell you how much it means
To have you there to help me realise my hopes and dreams.
I'll never forget what you have done for me
And I can only hope that in the future I can repay you in kind.
You're the best sister one could ever ask for
And you'll always be on my mind.
Once again, thank you, and I love you.
Author notes
This is for my older sister, Roslyn...She's looked after me since she was four, and she's always been there for me, through whatever shit that's happened.
