WHEN I WAS A LITTLE GIRL,
I USED TO DREAM ABOUT THE MAN
WHO'D GIVE ME THE WORLD.
JUST SIMPLE, LITTLE THINGS;
A HUG AND A KISS GOOD MORNING
MAYBE SOMEDAY A DIAMOND RING.
A HOUSE FULL OF LOVE,
RESPECT, HONESTY AND ALWAYS FAITHFUL
WITH GOD'S BLESSING FROM ABOVE.
JUST WANTED ONLY ONE MAN
TO LOVE ME FOREVER,
NOT TO HURT ME JUST BECAUSE HE CAN.
NOW MY TEARS FALL LIKE RAIN
FOR I ONLY WANTED SOMEONE TO LOVE ME
NOT CAUSE ME TO BE IN PAIN.
THIS PAIN I LIVE WITH EVERY DAY
SEEING LOVERS WALKING HAND-IN-HAND
KNOWING LOVE WILL NEVER COME MY WAY.
I CRY MYSELF TO SLEEP AT NIGHT
WITH ONLY A PILLOW TO HOLD ON TOO,
KNOWING THIS IS NOW MY LIFE.
ONLY SHATTERED DREAMS REMAIN
OF A LIFE I'LL NEVER HAVE
FOR ALL I CAN FEEL IS THIS BURNING PAIN.
I KNOW THAT NO ONE WILL EVER LOVE ME
OR ACCEPT ME THE WAY THAT I AM,
SO ALL THAT IS LEFT OF ME IS MY BROKEN DREAMS.
This is a good poem... I know how tat feels....
