When my world falls, I'm still standing.

Today my world crashed down

If I were as I once was

I would be lying

and crying upon my bed



I'm not like I was

when you first met me though

I have changed

I have grown,

I have hardened into stone.



I didn't need anyone

But I wanted so badly for you.

To make a trip halfway up America

Just to meet you.



You told me things I secretly want to hear,

But all to be lies I fear.

You are probably the only person I would have let

Stomp all over my heart

and call back.



I too am near my first love

but that never mattered

no one ever mattered to me

after I met you.



So call me a sentimental

Because I thought you were being true

There wasn't and won't be any tears to hide

I'm not a little girl who thinks love is all there ever was.

I feel like this poem is to me....this poem accually scares me a lot. I feel like this poem is speaking to me, saying all I have ever told you is lies. Maybe this isn't about me, maybe I just have a guilty consciouns. Maybe I can't spell worth shit. But I don't know. I just wan't you to know that you are my friend, and I want to always be there for you, and I hope you feel the same. I have lost a lot of friends in the past. And I know that is going to continue to happen. Lets face it i'm not the easiest person to be with. I guess i'll just see where this winding road takes me. Once again, sorry for any pain I may have caused you. But I am always there for you.
