I Was Starting To...

I was starting to realize meaning of friendship

Until someone stripped it from my smile

Faded away like memories on a filmstrip

Only lasting for what appears to be a while.



I was starting to understand everything

but Now there is not left it seems

and Still your harmful words echoing

Crashing down all of my dreams.



I was starting to believe in me

Like I have never been able to do

Knowing who I am to be

but Now, I know only you.



I was starting to like myself again

Putting down those harmful blades

but You ripped my hopes to an end

Turning my world to darker grays.



I was starting to know what happiness means

More than a smile; More than my laugh

Trusting was what made my soul clean

but My heart has now been ripped in half.



I was starting to fill the empty space

Yes, the one I have had for many years in my heart

Slowly, I began to erase

but The ability has been shot down with your darts.
