Falling~

I wished you would have realized I was falling,
falling so far down, I couldn't stand...
My life had lost its meaning, lost it's purpose.
All it's worth had been removed strand by strand.

The light had disappeared, total darkness.
Why had my happiness gone away?
Everyday I would wonder maybe...
You'd notice I was falling and help me stay.

The days went by and slowly there came thunder,
but not even lightning lit my dismal sky.
The rain poured down, joining in my tear drops,
and all alone I sat and wondered why.

...why?...

Why am I depending on you?
Why don't I just get up on my own?
Why can't I stand up when I fall?
Why is it to much to be alone?

So I got up and screamed over the thunder,
that I could help myself, and be strong.
I shouldn't have waited for some one to realize,
I should have stopped it myself, I knew all along.


~I stopped falling.
