Brandon's Sister


She looks so happy they say

The truth is, you caught me on a good day

I'm an aspiring artist

I'm not on the popular list

I am a fundraiser

The feeling of helping people could not feel greater

Especially when one of those people is your little brother

Knowing there is no cure is a feeling of no other

Being Branon's sister comes with challenges

Although, not all of it is baggage

I am going to school to make my dreams come true

Along the way I have been told, make it about you

And that is just what I will finally be able to do
