For my sister

         Tomorrow
I'll try to understand her
Try to understand the excitement behind
those piercing black eyes
Try to understand her zeal for life,
tireless energy, and love for others.

         Tomorrow
I'll sit down beside her and get to know
to know this sister of mine.
I'll get to know the skinny girl little girl
I grew up with.

         Tomorrow
We'll go for a long walk
We'll sit for hours and laugh

         Today?
I'm too busy.
I have too much to do.
She's getting on my  nerves.

         Today
She's asking stupid questions
I just don't feel like answering.
   
        Today
I'm to tired,
but tomorrow,
I'll tell her how much I love her
I'll hug her and tell her she's pretty
I'll tell her I'm glad i have a sister ....... tomorrow

        Tomorrow
Has finally come and she is gone........
