My Sister, My Strength And My Pride Poem by tora keo

A true blessing was sent my way
it just happened one day
I always prayed for someone who? d care
and then suddenly she was right there
I needed some words to comfort me
I needed some love to see

She is the first one to say
she is proud of me
she gives me such good advice
and hopefully she doesn? t tell me lies
she says I have to keep my head up
to carry on, and to never stop
she comforts me with her kind words
and eases a li'l of my hurt
she has been there for me like always
she couldn? t be replaced

She gives me respect and dignity
and she believes in me
I needed a helping hand
and she is there, to always understand
when everything goes wrong
she makes me strong
when I feel alone
she lets me know I? m not on my own
she truly makes me grow
and teaches me things I didn? t know
And God knows how I thank him
for sending me this friend
and hope this friendship will
never end

But there? s one question in my head
that sometimes makes me sad
why does she live so far away
and why is she so busy everyday
why can? t I just have a perfect friend
who is right by my side
my sister, my strength and my pride
I guess I? m already blessed with this
although my blessings has been few
this great one will do
Thank you for everything Tisha
my sister, my strength and my pride
