Memories Of My Sister

Like dusting the cobwebs off my soul

I suddenly feel like a puppet in a play

Someone is pulling my strings who I don't know

Suddenly entering a darkened tomb within my mind

Now I am simply an open book for all to see

As suppressed emotions open old wounds

That now sting from the salt of my tears

Threatening to fall apart on such short notice

Just like Humpty Dumpty being put back together by all the king's men

In front of my strong willed team is embarrassing to say the least

But they are what holds me together when the going gets tough

But now they know it's personal and nothing else

Someone was taken from me not by force but by choice

And now years later that person is going to pay

By my hands and by the law
