A really good friend of mine wrote this for me last year. I was cleaning up my computer last week and found it. It spoke to me then and speaks to me now. I have really wonderful friends :)
I stare, eyes wide open,
But blind non the less,
I hold on, fists clenched tightly,
But the grip is slackened,
I try, with genuine intentions,
But fail by my own inability.
Fear it chains, me keeps me down,
My pride denies my weakness,
Alone I sit in darkness,
But you still are there,
I fight, wanting isolation,
Your love draws me near,
I cry out, drowning in confusion,
You calm the storms of my heart,
I fall, breaking down,
You pick up the pieces.
For the times Ive felt alone,
The times I yelled and screamed,
The times Ive turned my back,
And the times I wished for death,
You still were there.
