Family.

They read you like a book,
And your smiles turn the pages,
With every word bringing them closer,
The love you show, hurt you share.
Where the happiness begins,
And the sorrows drown.
Holding you back where there is lightning,
Holding you back where there is darkness.
They're always there, just say a word.
They're always there, just to complete you.
From your beautiful baby sister,
Her tears make you frown,
And look at the stones that made her fall,
You move them away, making her smile.
From your stone of an elder brother,
He walks before you,
Taking the perils of life,
Down on his lap, brushed before you sit.
He holds you by the hand,
Reminding you of his mistakes,
Regret in his eyes,
He paves the way for you,
Making you smile.

It started when you first cried,
And they cried too,
With tears of joy, they held you so close,
You're everything they've ever dreamed of.
They see you climbing to the top,
And they never frown, when you fall down,
You get back up, and they know you will.
They've given so much,
Maybe its time for you too.
You'll ache for their love,
Embrace while you can.
You'll ache for every emotion,
Listen, while you still can.
