For My Sister

I write this poem in honor of you
To thank you for all of the things that you do.
You'll never really know how valuable you are
So for now, for a while, I'll admire from afar.
You model for me what I wish I could be
And it's nice to see that I'm someone's priority.
All of the things that you think, say and do
will for some reason hold some sort of value.
I guess it is because I love you so
And that is why I will never let you go.

You keep my head set straight and my thoughts on track
Regardless of what you had to say you never held back.
Through all the tears, the laughs and the times
I held your hand and you held mine.
I want you to know that there is no other
You're not only my sister, but a father and a mother.

For you I write a poem of praise
Because of you my hopes are raised.
You are my sister, my soul mate, my friend
And I know it will carry on to the end.
So I write this poem in honor of you
To thank you for all of the things that you do.
