I called my sister today
hoping to hear her voice.
All I heard was a stranger that didn't feel a thing like her.
I was lost in looking for her, desperately needing her by my side
but she isn't.
She is far away
and sometimes I feel her close, I feel as though I hear her from the other side of my phone calls to her.
Sometimes I don't feel so alone.
Sometimes.
Then my heart sings for her,
aches like an unbelievable aching
and it's moments like those that I start
to wonder
when did the rain become a storm
and when did having her gone
turn from missing her achingly
to needing her
desperately?
