greatest fear
i watched my sister die today,
although she's still here.
i saw her heart forever break,
and wiped away her tears.
i have been where she is now,
where no one should be.
everywhere she goes, there's pain,
sometimes, even with me.
i watched my sister die today,
although she's still here.
i saw her slowly bend and break,
and my own true fear.
i've seen someone become me,
her true self locked within.
for now, it's kept somewhere in there,
trapped beneath the skin.
i watched my sister die today,
although she's still here.
i saw her heart forever break,
and wiped away my tears.
