On Friendship and Sisterhood
Updated: Aug 17
My eyes they leave stains
In the places I have lain
Black and gray splotches
Rivers run when no one watches
Though my head may rest
When the night comes to call
My mind, it does its blessed best
To make sense of your leaving
When everyone else is asleep
I think of the times when we were at peace
And friendship was as to breathing
Sisterhood is tedious
It strains one’s heart
Yet it is worth the vicious
Pain that stabs at our hearts
When life seems to pull us apart
However, we are tethered by the love
From our mutual Father from above
Who sees my tears and yours too
-If you have them
He sees them be they many or few
So while my eyes leave these stains
I know they are mostly in vain
For we shall always and forever be sisters.
