My hope for you my girls
Is this The love and laughter You share today Will stay with you Through the years That are sure to bring Careers and families Homes and cares Days of silence Sometimes grief Life will bring Frantic times Joyful times Times of peace My hope for you, my girls, is this The laughter and love Sisters call home Inside jokes Looks that break yokes Of life and times Of busy, rushing by As life takes on its own form Individualized With passions and pursuits That may pull you apart In distance, never heart My hope for you is this That you will always find Each other Again As life slows down Crows feet, gray crowns You will find each other With laughter and love My greatest desire is this You will never be alone With the laughter and love Sisters call home Why do you get to be so happy, live a life so full,
While the crumbled remains of my heart lay in your wake? Why do you get to look like perfection, nothing broken, smiling so big? When every time I see you, think of you, hear of you My chest grows tight with rejection, imperfection, misdirection... I was loyal, you were not. Turning your back when things grew rocky, Yelling, screaming, cursing, shaming, Giving ultimatums, pointing, blaming. Playing the victim when I needed a break From the yelling and screaming and shaming I faced. Then saying I rejected you! Trashing my name, continuing to shame. Were you afraid of my truth? Afraid it would show a possible flaw in the stands you take, in the perfection you fake? Well now we wait. For what? I don't know... I don't know... because now I doubt everything I once knew.
