I remember when we were little
The imaginary games we used to play
Pretending to be elegant princesses
Knights in shining armour, dragons to slay
Such beautiful, humorous moments
The childish games and smiles we shared
You were my best friend, my sister
For you I truly cared
As time slowly went on, you changed
Childhood memories, a thing of the past
You left me, as if I were nothing but a ghost
Pushed to the back, I was always last.
What had started out so innocent
Now a raging fire, full of fiery spite
You turned to smoking and parties
Staying out late all night
Our parents didnt know what to do
So many nights I lay wide awake
Listening to such times of despair
Not knowing how much more to take
So young, so many expectations
Overprotected, I was to be a reflection
Pressured not to turn to darkness
But in fact be a child of light and wisdom
Forced to grow up, to be mature and accepting
Any wrong move, and I was instantly judged
Watching everyone else, living their lives
I asked for nothing but to be truly loved.
Lifes greatest gift, is the gift of love
To have someone to laugh with today
A shoulder to cry on in times of grief tomorrow
So what did I do to have that taken away?
