PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I used to dream of what could be

of the wonders of the world to see

I lived and loved and laughed

and knew the value of living free

and so many freinds

who came and went

and treasured memories

of times we spent

I had my freedom

and my times to roam

knew not the fear

of being alone

I had momentum

and a world to see

and could not foresee

a change in me

but then fell in love

and loved so deep

and sacrificed all

this love to keep

and changed my life

though it stiffled passion

tried to so hard

to fit within her worlds fashion

to be there for her

when she fell down

she became what

my world revolved around

she tested me

tried to trick me too

my love was something

she wanted me to prove

I jumped through hoops

as I swallowed the hook

the more I gave

the more she took

Love is blind?

well it blinded me

her selfish lies

I couldn't see

and when I was

broke down as I could be

she very casually

walked away from me

my life became

stumbling through the dark

my world of wonder

was now so stark

so began my life of darkness

self doubt and self abused

mistakes upon mistakes

many more times to be used

it's so hard to stumble and fall

and then be trambled in the dirt

then left alone to struggle up

dust it off and pretend it doesn't hurt

I lived so long in darkness

and never tried to see

I choked and starved my dreams

till I had nothing to believe

I thought that I was dead

and nothing mattered much to me

then you saw me, and like magic

you were seeing who I used to be

but I doubted love

and doubted you and also doubted me

and could easily have thrown your love away

but magic in your words made me wait and see

and we began to talk

and dream of what our lives could be

the more you talked the more I believed

and was reborn after years of misery

but I'd sworn off love

and I'd meant it too

and this is hardest thing

that I've ever had to do

but it's something you need to know

I can't prove it but it's true

I think you are an angel

and sweetness I love you
