No matter what

I stood by you

I don’t suppose you realized

I was standing alone.

Did you see?

When the threw the

Stones at me

And spit in my face

They laughed you know,

Some still do.

But I didn’t buckle

No…

I didn’t fall.

I did it all for you.

You were my prize

…When can I have you?



Why didn’t you see?

They pinned me to a stake

Cast spells on me

Mocking me

As though they could

Actually believe it’d

Make me shameful

Guilty

Think twice or give in.

But I didn’t and I never

Will

I will always stand beside

You

I will not fail

I will not deceive

Nor betray



I wish you could’ve

Seen it

I have to admit

I was pretty brave

I don’t suppose you

Could’ve stood up to

All those vicious words.

They hurt you know.



I never failed you

But I realize something

I failed myself perhaps

Maybe in all that time

Believing in all my selfless deeds

I could prevail

Rising above all the tragedies

Of life

To find in the end I

Would be left to reside

Upon my pedestal

With you.



I was a blind fool

I was a blind fool

Maybe I was selfish

Only hoping that I

Would gain your love

And support

Hoping one day I would

Have your shoulder

To cry upon.

Hoping I would see you

Standing beside ME!

Absorbing and repelling

All the hate the world

Has to offer.



I never was one

For happy endings.

But once in awhile it

Would be a nice change.

-A surprise at that.



I really do wish you could

Have seen me...



I WAS BRILLAINT!
