Puzzle Piece
My heart is like an empty chamber,
it is ready to love,
but doesn't have it.
There is a dark room inside of me,
longing for someone to occupy it,
but no one is.
In my mind,
I dream of the right person,
I always wonder who that can be.
I can never find who is supposed to fill my occupancy,
and I always wonder why.
Sometimes I wonder if I will ever know.
Sometimes I wonder if it's not meant to be.
Then I think to myself..
of course there is someone,
they have my missing puzzle piece.
I still wonder who that someone is.
I realize that someone is me.
That I need to learn who I am to fill the missing puzzle piece,
I have that puzzle piece inside of me,
I just have to find it.
And to find it,
I have to know me.
Oh Brother
Oh, Brother of mine,
you have me twisted, and molded.
You have me formed like you.
You have molded me into a younger you.
You have taught me the type of person I want to be.
You cared for me when I was young,
and became my best friend when I got older.
You've loved me since the beginning,
and I know you'll love me to the end.
Our time as just brother and sister is ending,
in just a matter of a couple of months.
But I will never forget the days
you showed me how I wanted to be.
When you have children,
I'll give them the kind of love you gave me.
You played with me when I was young,
and gave me advice when I was older.
You've never left my side,
even in our tough times.
We've fought,
we've laughed,
but most of all,
we've loved.
I'll always remember,
as I was a child,
you taught me to be strong,
and not a wimpy child.
As we get older,
our relationship gets better.
I'll love you forever,
and remember the days we were young,
and how you taught me who I wanted to be.
Oh, brother,
you've completely got me twisted,
into this little minion of yours.
I would do anything to help you,
but that role isn't mine anymore.
When you get married,
i'll pass on my role to the girl of your dreams.
I will forever love you,
I will forever look out for you,
but it won't be the same.
She's got to be your number one,
and I have to let her be.
Just like one day,
as I get married,
you'll do the same for me.
I don't want to let you go,
and I don't think I ever will,
but I guess its time for some separation,
so you can spread your wings.
You moved away from home,
a couple of years ago.
But married life is way different,
than living forty-five minutes away from home.
Oh brother,
how you've been to me when I've needed you,
and that's when you were the best.
I've cried to you
so many times before,
and you never gave me a judge full eye,
you were only there with open arms.
Oh, how I hope shes as good to you,
as you have been to me.
You've helped me through my worst times,
and got me to my good times.
Without you, I would be Kara,
you loving little sister.
I wouldn't love like you,
or act like you.
People say daughters learn to love like their fathers do,
and how as that may be true,
I have also learned to love as you do.
You care for people in need,
even if it's stupid.
You've brought me up when I've been down,
and even brought me up higher,
by your tender words in "its okay"
Oh brother,
how much I love you,
you have no earthly idea.
I will never forget our pirate ship,
in the backyard of our house.
And how you made me feel special,
by just playing along for laughs.
You treated me with kindness,
and though we both have flaws,
your flaws are no worse than mine,
because we are merely the same.
I've learned so much over the years from you,
as in who I want to be,
so now that we are letting you spread your wings,
I think it's time for me.
I have decided what I've wanted to do in life,
if you can not see,
I want to be just as good as you,
if that can even be.
When I have kids,
I hope they have as good as a brother as I have had,
and that they will have the same experience you and I have had.
Now it's time to let you be free,
and start to lead your own life.
But don't you ever forget,
that i'm only a phone call away.
I want to be there for you, as you were there for me.
I wont ever forget the love you've shared and always given me.
Oh brother,
how I love you,
and you have loved me.
To The Girl My Brother Loves
I've always known he would find you,
I just didn't know it would be this soon.
You must be extra special,
to be my brother's girl.
You must treat him right,
even when he is wrong,
because he will do the same.
You must act with love,
even when it's hard.
You must be mature,
even when things aren't going your way.
You must like to have fun,
because he is a goofy guy.
And if you don't you aren't the right girl.
You must learn to be patient with him,
as he will be with you.
And don't you be mean to him,
because then there I will be..
You must learn to accept every aspect of his life and family,
as he will you.
And to let you know,
if he loves you,
so do I.
But don't mess this up,
because this is a once in a lifetime try.
