Worlds Away

Her face I see as it echoes in me

Her pain and her fear blatantly evident as I watch it appear

She hides and masks the pain with quick talking that's a strain

How so desperately I want to help her regain

We are worlds apart

But she remains most prevalent in my heart

I want to wipe her tears and brush away all her fears

But we seem to always remain worlds apart

I wonder if she knows

That my love for her is at the very core of my beating heart

Lately she struggles to see

The visions that I know will set her free

All I want is to see her happy and filled with glee

A peace that surpasses all understanding

An inner love and respect is what I long to detect

Yet we remain worlds apart

I see and talk to her just about every day

But what I really want is to just make all her pain go away

My heart breaks as I witness her struggles

Inside I feel sad and hopeless

But I have to keep trying to make her see

How beautiful and special she is

To both herself and to me

Worlds apart is what we are

We are so night and day

So living separate lives here across the bay

But our hearts remain intertwined

Because until I die though we are worlds apart

I will forever keep her centered at the core of my heart

My baby sister she will always be

A precious and beautiful woman in her I still do see

I pray that our worlds will collide

And God's grace and mercy will bond us close

And nothing will be left to hide

Beacuse worlds away I no longer want us to be

I dream of the day that we just hang out and laugh sipping a nice cup of tea
