My Sister
My sister was the amazing one
I'm proud of everything she has done
Her life so short, I do not believe
that she just had to forever leave

I love my sister with all my heart
and I'm mad and sad that she had to part
If you knew her like I did
You'd see that she was just a kid

She was a mother of two, a sister of three
The one who knew her best was me
Jas and Ang will never know
that their Mom always had a glow

She brightened a room with a smile
She made living here all worthwhile
I could always call her when in need
I talked and she gave me the way to lead

Jenny may not have always been angelic
There can never be a replacement relic
She was a punk throughout the years
Made you grit your teeth and sneer

I will miss you Jenny, I really will
There's a place here in me noone else can fill
I want you back, here for me
everyone else and us sisters three

Jenny it wasn't supposed to end like this
you were supposed to live long, and end with a kiss
Our past is filled with memories of you and I
and when I look back, I want to cry

I remember you'd always steal my clothes
You always lived a life I loathed
You always used to ask for back rubs
I'd give you a million and one and a soak in the tub

Jen, I know you're in a better place
and you'll do good, you've got a pretty face
Don't get wild up thre in heaven
and I'll always remember you 24/7

I love you Jenny
