I am engulfed by this darkest black,
Waiting for you as I always do.
You will come I’m sure of it
You said you loved me,
This can’t be it.
This story is far from done
I will see this through until I am with you.
I lay on the bed where we spent so much time,
Laughing and giggling,
Cuddling and kissing.
And while I wait I smile and stare
Sneaking over glances,
Filled with hope ,
That I will see you standing there.
See you walk through the door,
To embrace me once more.
But still I wait, and wait I do
But you never come, never walk through
The door I left open just a crack,
To let the light in, dispel this darkest black.

But here is the bit that truly astounds us all,
She took a fall,
But she got back up
And was able to stand tall.
And now you see her,
Happy and laughing,
But not with you.
And that's when you realize you had a good thing,
You had something true,
But you let that all go,
And now you know,
But it's far too late.
Because this beautiful girl who stood by your side,
Is taken by someone who actually treats her right.

You led her on,
Made her believe that you loved her,
Made her believe you cared,
Made her trust you and open that door she had closed so tight.
She let you in,
And you let her down.
She fell for you hard,
You said you would catch her,
So why did she hit the ground?
She believed in you,
When no one else had,
And this is how you repay her?
This is so sad...
You led her here,
With words of love
And acts of romance,
Just to leave her there,
Her heart torn in two,
To fend for herself,
And find someone new.

Their glance,
Their touch,
Their laugh,
Their cry,
Their embrace,
Their beauty,
Their personality,
Their smile.
Everything about them is so perfect,
So true.
Now if only they would realize,
they are meant to be with you.

Here I am
on the edge between
happiness and sadness
once more.
How did I get here?
How did I become so lost,
so alone...
Why am I here?
Why dont I belong?
acception is such a strange concept.
We believe in those we feel worthy,
and forget those we feel are not.
Why cant we accept that each
And every person is great
and unique and amazing
in ther own special way
they create individually.
I would do a lot
to make sure
people dont end up
where I am right now.

Why are there good things?
Why are there blessings?
And weddings?
And love?
Why is there a natural beauty that surrounds us?
In the trees,
And the sky.
In the little birds twittering in the mornings,
And the sorrowful wolves crying in the dusk.
Why are there families?
And holidays?
And friends?
Why are there walks to be taken?
And cakes to be making,
And songs to be written
And times to be smitten?
We are known as humans to dwell on the bad
But take a look around,
Life isn’t that sad.
Open your eyes to the possibilities,
Open your heart and you too will see,
The beauty hidden just out of sight.
It takes a special someone to be able to reveal,
The secrets in life that are the real deal.

The loyal support we address as a ‘friend’.
There for you when you feel like breaking,
When the tears are overwhelming,
And the sadness unforgiving.
They will stand by your side through sun, sleet and snow.
And when you need them most they will be your pillow.
Cushioning your fall when you drop from great heights.
Comforting and faithful,
Never failing to make you smile.
Cause at every wrong turn,
There will always be a friend.
Someone unlike any other,
That stands alone above all the others.
Be thankful for their friendship,
Be thankful for their love.
Be thankful that even though you may be weak they remain strong,
To pull you to safety when life feels just, wrong.
