Companion

So this poem is super cheesy and super cliched, but I like it anyways...
Oh, and it is dedicated to my sister Jessica

--------

Sad girl
come and walk by my side
let me be your companion
through this difficult time

Sweet girl
the tears in your eyes
are keeping your blinded
to the beauty inside

inside of your heart
inside of your soul
the kind of beauty
that makes the world grow

silly girl
fold your hand into mine
feel the love of the world
pulsing there in your life

the world needs your voice
the world needs your hands
'cause the strength you possess
is high in demand

sad girl
when it gets hard to show
that strength with which you guide
remember love, you are never alone

you are loved for your rights
you are loved for your wrongs
for you teach all of us
how to carry on

sister
come and walk by my side
let me be your companion
through this difficult time

A thankyou and apology in the form of a rant

I'm in awe today
at the subtle way
your faults somehow became
my fault

And it's great that I know
from that letter you wrote
but my friend, you could've just
said so

You could've grown a pair
not been so scared
acted your age
said it to my face
since I thought that as friends
thats the way you begin
to make things better
not with a letter
but a real conversation
to work out frustration
to see the other's perspective
and show a little respect
for one another like adults
and not like we're stuck
in some high school t.v. drama

But I thank you for your honesty
no matter however you told me
because, well, you can't fix a problem
you can't see

So I'm here to apologize
while looking you in the eyes
a respect I hope you'll give me
the next time
