Feb 2010
I awake from my slumber
And I look out my window
I see snowflakes falling
Drifting to the glistening ground

The sun is so bright
That it hurts my eyes
I turn away and think
It’s so beautiful today

But how can it be?
Last night was so horrible
How can the day rejoice
When my heart is broken?

It felt like a storm was raging
But to everyone else in the world
The night was peaceful
Though for me it stormed

I saw another side of him last night
The side no one wants to see
I want to overlook it
But my heart hurts too badly

I ended it last night
I couldn’t take the other side
I learned of the real boy
That I thought was so kind

I thought he was perfect
But of course I should have known
No one can be perfect
So now I feel alone

But I am not alone
I am never alone
There will always be someone
And today that is Grace

Grace will help me
I know she will
I sigh and I lean
Against the window sill

Though I may slow
It’s not as if everyone dies
The world doesn’t know
It passes on by
