My Best Friend, My Sister

Published by Family Friend Poems July 2006 with permission of the Author.

Before you were born
Sixteen years ago
I found out something
I would never know

You would be the one
who kept me sane
and the best things in my life
you are to blame

Through good, bad
happy and sad
you are the best friend
I never had

I was here
you were there
running around the house
with trouble to share

Growing up
Mama called us partners in crime
'cause when we were together
doing wrong, we both did time

Now sixteen years later
we are now far apart
two different states
but you're still in my heart

to my best friend, Renytha
I'm glad you're my "sistah"!
