While you slept

While you slept

A Poem by Tara Togoland
"

For a sister and a friend..... the world indeed is our playground....

"
You lift me high up when my wings forgot how to fly
It ain't awkward standing here when you right by my side
When I can't jump the fence, you walk the long mile
We can't be mere friends, we are sisters for life

I live for nothing else but simply to guard your smile
You've made me to strive to be better than who I am
I know that am crazy but you are way far crazier
We aren't ordinary, we are sisters for life

So hello, I got your message on the phone
Its a beautiful morning, hope you dreamt of me too
Cause yesterday I prayed today all your dreams come true
And I kept awake to watch over you while you slept
I took turns with heaven's Angel to keep guard while you slept

Sorry I wasn't here when you opened your eyes
But I was around like your invincible Superman
And I meant it when I said I'll always be here
So I walked about the room to watch you while you slept
Didn't even wink but guarded you while you slept.

Sibling bonds are one of a kind, near impossible to break. This poem perfectly captures those feelings of love and need. Thanks for the read!
