she has
saved my life
literally
she has been
my mother
daughter
sister, friend
I don't attempt
to tell her I love her
Because she,
like myself,
requires action.
Her insecurities,
which i can never soothe
are all the more endearing
because in this bundle
of caring and nerves
I see whom i want to become
If you say i am
over protective
I can only say
how can you protect too much
the most important thing?
