This is a true story, not so much a poem.

Did you ever have someone 
in your life, 
that was not family?
But really felt like this person was. 
Maybe in a past life we were, 
or maybe God just made it 
this way in this life. 
I'm not sure but I know 
the feelings are love, 
and true friendship. 



I always had a real problem 
at trusting people to tell 
my every secret, problem and joy to. 
I was always the kind that held a lot in
and just put a smile on my face, 
like there was nothing wrong 
in the world with me. 



But there was this one person, 
that seen through me in so many ways. 
She knew when I was hurting, 
she knew when something was wrong, 
she seemed to know me inside out. 



Not many people could tell this about me, 
I don't think there was really anyone. 
Our long talks together, 
our many tears together, 
our many hopes and dreams together. 
Yes, there were those many fun times too. 



Laying in bed at night talking
till the wee hours of the morning, 
We would laugh and laugh
at the many things that we had done. 
Also we confided in each other, 
we did have our problems,
and yes we even disagreed on a few.



But through everything, 
we never let nothing or no one 
ever come between us. 
We have a friendship that will last 
forever I really feel. 
We are more than best friends
... we are true Sisters. 
Maybe not in blood and bone, 
but in heart and soul. 



It's not often we find a friend such as this, 
it is rare. 
But the one thing that stands out 
the most to me is, 
no matter what one or the other one has, 
we are always so happy for each other. 
We do not judge each other, 
we do not feel jealous of each other, 
and I know we are 
"always" there for each other.


 
Yes, I have very dear and close friends 
in my life, 
friends I would do anything for, 
friends that will be a part of me forever. 
But this one lady, 
is that sister I never had in my life. 
The sister I always dreamt of having, 
the sister that will be a part of me forever.


 
And I hope one day soon 
we will see each other again, 
I am hoping one day soon 
we will live close by again. 
I am hoping one day soon 
we can hug each other again, 
and feel that special kind of love. 
The love of two sisters. 




I love you Lucy, 
you have always been 
that true sister to me. 
May God always bless you 
and your family. 
And may one day soon 
our families be reunited. 
Never forget though I'm far from you ... 
you are only a heartbeat away. 
We are always together. 



Your Big Sister
