Broken-Hearted
I wonder if you know?
How my heart aches so
There’s nothing I can say
To stop you from carrying on this way
Brought together by fate
A friendship we did create
Sisters to the heart and soul
No one would ever know
Though we didn’t share a blood Mother
But I love you like no other
Threaded together in a life of strife
The pain cuts like a knife
To watch you take those pills
And see you oh so ill
If I could take away the pain
The pain that makes you think
I can’t see you sink
Into a darker dark
When did all this start?
My patients are running thin
Hiding won’t make you win
This battle of addiction
Again I have to listen
To those daily doses of wonder
and questions that come from under
Can you feel the braking heart of
your sister?
This was written for my sister who lives with addiction
