Abandoned Sister

Finding out I had a sister, lit up my eyes The happiness of seeing you for the first time The few memories I have of you, Going to breakfast, the amusement park The beginning of learning who you were The love I already felt for you The few minutes it felt that I knew you for All this gone within days, months, years One day you were here, the next day you were gone The heartache I felt for you, the need for you in my life The barrier to stop us from knowing each other, a horrible monster Wishing for a way to see you again, Knowing that you had another life in your own The desire to get to know both you and her The chance of it all taken away in an instant And then the call that changed it all A couple years gone by, wondering how you were Then it happened, getting a call, then getting the talk The tears streaming down our soaked eyes The sadness strewn through the years never going away Seeing you one more time, no chance of it Never having a chance to know you Walking day to day wondering if things were different Wanting and wishing for one more chance to know you
