Not Only For Him...

So here it lies.

I find a sense of happiness,

And it’s being denied to me.

Assumptions will be the death of me.

I do not envy his position –

Nor my own for that matter.

He is everything, in one beautiful package.

The potential, the greatness of happiness

We could achieve.

Does he not see it?

Does he not want it?

Does he not care?

His demons are winning.

I know not what I can do.

Perhaps nothing…

Or so he says.

He needs to find his own peace.

He needs to conquer his own hell.



How am I supposed to mend this?

How do I begin to heal?

When can I enjoy my happy ending?

It’s not such a big deal!



I didn’t know I could be so happy

I didn’t know it wouldn’t matter

I didn’t know I could endure this battle

I won’t back down, I won’t give this up.



I have chosen to reside here.

I have chosen to be strong.

I have chosen this my place to be

And I will sing my song.



I am here to save you.

I am here to mend your dreams

I am here to take your broken heart

And show you what leave means



You don’t know how much I want this

You don’t see how much I care.

I can’t give in or give you up

That’s the bigger burden to bear.
