Dark shadows
Dark shadows floating
Over me. I pray for
My sister every night
that she’ll come
To her senses
Someday.
And take care
Of body and take
Her meds like
She should’ve
Been doing
All along.
I don’t like to ask about
Her because the
News is never good
Anymore.
God knows I love her! but
It breaks my heart to see her waste away
And throw her life away so I do
My best to bypass the subject of
Her these days. She says she’s
Never going to do what the
Doctor anyway? so it’s
Like these dark shadows over
Me.
