Sister and Best Friend

Author Unknown

The moment I realized,
my sister just died.
My hands cradled my face,
and I frantically cried.

Why did this happen,
and how could this be.
She had so much to live for,
we could all clearly see.

My heart simply dropped,
and felt a sharp pain.
My tears fell instantly,
Like a severe August rain.

I was truly lucky,
to have a sister like her.
Countless others,
nod and concur.

I will miss our talks,
and her comforting voice.
And those random moments,
where we’d mutually rejoice.

Rest in peace,
Sister and best friend,
My deepest love,
to the sky I shall send.
