Backbone

Some may be there by blood
Some may be there by heart
They’re here during the flood
And also during the tart


They come and never leave
May not be your frequently contacted 
Because you’re sure they’ll never retrieve 
And never get distracted 


We don’t get the chance to show our love 
Since they were there as we grew
But they already know that they’re above 
And they’re the reason we get through


They may be sisters 
Or even from other misters
