Because of You


Dear sister

 It is because of you that I sit down to write

fingers to keypad giving up my sight.

Though I type on with angst too

to offer more, later for college, to you.

It is of money that I write and attempt to impress

so as to be so lucky and so blessed

with a pick to recieve scholarship to the college of my dreams

and for you to see the benefit as well, but later it seems

love, Robyn
