My cheerleader sits
Her face reveals the suffering
That she endures silently
The face of a fighter
She always fought for me
Her little sister
She was the cheerleader
in my life
Always had my back
Now I strive to have
Just a tiny bit of her courage
To help her
Climb this tedious path
For this is her most
Important journey
I know my cheerleader is strong
vigilant
Faith filled
Loving
Enduring
Now full of the grace
She needs to enter
The place of rest
With Jesus, her Lord
Written as I sat at her bedside in her final days
