I wish i wouldve saved
Every tear i cried for you.
So i could drown you
In them.

So what brakes me,
Is I go to your page,
And it's nothing about me,
And yet the picture is down,
I'm scared to trust,
Scared to move on,
Scared to look up for good things,
When people could find out that,
I'm not what you think,
And it kills me because,
For what I seen you liked me for me,
I just wish when you said forever,
It really would of been Forever
But It will be fine
Everything always is,
I guess,
So don't worry about me,
I am use to it

We were always just that close,
Wrist, to wrist,
Toe to toe,
At least it felt like the inside of a rose,
So how come when I reach out my finger,
It feels like more then distance between us..

I know love by how the tears
glistened in my mother's face
as I came home crying one day

I know love by how a passing
stranger changed a fellow stranger's
life with just one look of sympathy

I know love by how a beggar feeds others
before feeding himself despite his
insides telling him to live for himself

I know love by how a young girl
overcame the mean kids in school
with her kind words knowing she did not
deserve it all

I know love by how my best friend  
desperately stopped my hand
from pulling the trigger
gun, pressed coldly to my head

I know love by how you
whisper sweet melodies
in my ears
as I write
this poem for people
to see love everywhere
