Because of You, I am Flawless
At first I felt lost
As I sat and continuously watched
My mentally ill sister struggle with what is real
and what is not
Sure she was seen by multiple professionals
But even they couldn't find
what she truly needed
It was tough for me
to intitially accept
that I could do nothing for my sis
And even though my helplessness
was once considered a flaw
It surely is not anymore
For it fueled something in me
Gave me a mission in life
I developed big dreams
I promised to change the world
And it's because of you, my big sis
I am flawless because
my decision is set
I have chosen to devote my life
to children like you, big sis
I am flawless because
I have chosen to pave
a brighter future for children
who struggle with multiple mental illnesses
I am flawless because
I am on track
to become a clinical psychologist
and that's that.
