Katherine Franco - I Meet My Sister
She is here
She is here!
My sister
The people have
Had her come here.
My sister
They have found out
She is my sister.
They have let us be
Together
My sister
As we are sleeping,
We hold hands
Across another man's chest
My sister
In the morning,
As the sun rises,
She is gone, sold
Sorrow
My sister
I will never see
Her again.
I loved her.
I would have won
Freedom for her
My sister
