Her beauty so sweet
But alone she cries
Hiding her sorrow
She hates the lies
She’s my sister
My best friend
My lover
My one and only
Her sadness
My sadness
Her joy
My joy
Her eyes filled with tears
Her smile shows her fears
I hold her close
She shares my heart
I love her laugh
She lights up the room
The world gets her down
It makes me defensive
She’s found her one
But problems still arise
She blames herself
She still loves him
This isn’t the problem
He loves her too
The world hurts him
They need to get away
I offer a home
Money’s a problem
I miss her so
I want her happy

I like how you wrote about something so personal to you and your life, but wrote about situations that other people can relate too. It shows you are really pouring yourself into this, but also creating something other people can find themselves in.
