My Dear Sister
I finally have a few moments alone
here I spend them writing a poem on my phone.
Need to get out of here, I haven't been alone in weeks,
It's time to go off on my own and peace is what I seek.
This life I now live, I'm surrounded by stress,
weighed down by others disaster, it's a complete mess.
I'm just now getting my life back together, why unload on me
but misery always did love company and you're to selfish to see.
When will you open your eyes to the real world
atleast see your potential and be that special girl..
that I know you are..my sister
but right now a freaking blister.
It's called tough love and you need it now more than ever
if I keep picking you up, you'll not be clever.
I love you so much but you make me so mad
and when you're mean to my nephew, it makes me sad.
You have a son, it's time to be responsible,
stop procastinating, you know you are capable.
These are things we've said to your face,
and you push him off on others, don't respect their space.
I always wish you the best but wish you would see the light
just wondering when you lost your fight?
If it's your ex who broke you, ya gotta move on,
you're the one doubting yourself and he is gone.
I just don't know what else I can do,
I think for the rest, it's all up to you.

Not a nice poem really., just ranting.

Sometimes those most in need of help are neither able to help themselves nor able to get out of their own way. Yet, we can only give what we have to give. Love, whether it's tough or embracing, is always good. Hopefully, the nephew in the poem will never feel pushed off on others but rather welcomed by them, with love. Thank you for sharing this write full of angst and heart.
That's what sisters are for!
God Bless!
