Kayla-Anne

I know I should be happy
But why can’t I be sad?
I’ll miss you with my whole heart
Is loving you that bad?
But I want you to be happy
To find joy in every way
So I’ll keep my tears behind my eyes
We’ll meet again someday.

The ice and the snow
Fly past my window
Your voice is steady and calm
I cannot believe
That you even feel pride
When you see what I do and I say.

We are so different you and me
You see the world unusually
Though I cannot say these things I feel
I know this love is very real.
To see you cry rips at my soul
To see you cry rips at my soul.

The ice and the snow
Fly past my window
Your voice is steady and calm
I cannot believe
That you even feel pride
When you see what I do and I say.

Your talent always awes me
Your love is wonder inspiring
But I used to pull you down
With a sneer, a jeer, a frown.
I didn’t know how to show my love
I didn’t know how to show my love.

But in spite of that
You pulled me back
And held me in your care
I cried and screamed
There was not one thing
Till you showed me you were there.
Don’t leave me now!
I don’t know how!
I can’t make it on my own!
You keep me strong
And moving on!
I’m not quite whole without you!

Through the ice and the snow
You tell me you love me
That my actions and love impress you
“Don’t forget who you are, and what you can do,”
You declare in the cold winter air.

As my sister, I love you
As my example, I live by you
As my best friend… I need you.
