You are

I know you're still worth saving
I wouldn't try , if not
It wouldn't matter what you are to me
You've got all my emotions caught

You fight with me, you blame me
But I still have to hold on
Cause I know there's this part of you
That always could have won

I know you can still reach it
Be a better person one day
But sometimes when you yell it me
All those thoughts just go away

It's getting difficult to hold on to you
Like a string with no connections
But I hold on with what I have
As I fight with conflicting emotions

There hasn't been a day we fought
Yet I still have it in me to hope
That you will fight for that better half
And rejoice instead of just sit and mope

It didn't take just a day
To let this change happen
But I feel you sink so far away
As both our resolves tend to weaken

We never left you alone, you know
But maybe I should have given you more time
Maybe I should have played with you
And pretended everything was fine

But, you know, I still feel you
And what you go through each day
I know you always make a promise
You're just not strong to ensure it'll stay

I just miss that little part of you
And all the moments that we shared
All these aching bittersweet memories
Of silly songs and dramas that fared

I do know you're too far gone
But I can't let go, and oh- it aches
Maybe I'm just watching you disappear
And waiting for inevitable heartbreak

But if you're there inside, still in you
I'll always want you to know
I never abandoned you, never stopped trying,
Little sister, as I watched you grow
