Noah's Ark
There will always be men
For years they've come & gone
Father figures, lovers, friends
Never there for long
Then God blessed me with you
Knowing that I was in need
Of your smile & slanted eyes
& humor of new breed
There will always be men
Cousins, nephews, older brothers
But none could ever be
What we are for each other
Hence God blessed me with you
Knowing the pain in my heart
He created you in his image
So I could find refuge in your ark
There will always be men
Lessons, regrets & mistakes
But you're there when I close my eyes
& greet me when I wake
So I know God blessed me with you
Knowing that in the end,
I'll always be your big sister
And you: my best friend
