My Older Sister


by Tina Canfield (15)

I tried to be there for you,
you didn't seem to care,
I tried to make you happy,
you left without a prayer,
I tried to love you dearly,
you pushed me, seldom say,
I tried to just be me,
and you laughed and walked away.
I tried to fit in with you,
you just rolled your eyes,
Your friends thought I was cool,
to you, a big surprise.
You always made fun of me,
I would walk away,
I wish you'd be my friend
instead of a sibling that won't stay.
