Way of Life

Some say the best of things in life don’t last
But I’ve still got you & that proves ‘em wrong
All the way you’ve been by my side,
Lending me a helping hand when I stumbled
Let me fall too when you thought I needed that lesson
To be careful the next time around
Held me close to you, gave me warmth & comfort
How I cherish you, how much my heart beats for you
Nothing could be more precious than you,
Or so I thought I too would be for you ...
I don’t deny you love me true
Yet this heart pleads for more of you
Wish to have you around, the way I used to
Wish to have the carefree life all back again
Wish to walk the fields together, watch the sun dip & play in the rain
Wish to chat up way beyond what we were permitted to do…
Wish to do all the crazy things we always used to do
We were a team, together we could beat all odds…
You’d know my thoughts before even I could interpret ‘em
You could see when my heart was bleeding
You knew when to let me be by myself & when to scoop me up in your loving arms
Folks envied us! Yes! They never could have a bond like ours
We were blessed with it…oh yea! & we knew it too
We always had a something special between us
Our heart & mind was one...
None else could perceive our thought but we could speak without words
Hear in absence of speech, feel sans the emotions expressed
We were a team… we still are…
Way of life has taken over now
You have your lives & I mine…
Yet it remains true that I never had truer friends than you my lovely sisters!
