I was a child and free
of my worries,
Holding the hand of
anyone that showed me love.
Breezing through life
smiling and laughing,
Dreaming of touching
the sky like a beautiful dove.
I was a teen and still
growing up,
Learning with every
mistake that I made.
Hoping you would be
there when I mess up,
Raring to forge ahead,
with excitement I need.
Did
not chose my family, but did choose my mates,
The most amazing thing
in this world.
Helping me reach and
touch the stars above,
Drawing support and
love that my friends unfurled.
The
stars seemed to shine brighter even on a cloudy night,
Seeing you smile
surrounded by stars, oh! what a sight.
I wanted to hold you in
my arms, caressed in evening light,
And your head on my
shoulders it felt perfect, just right.
As I looked into your
eyes, I knew for sure,
I wanted to spend every
breath together.
Wrapped in the blanket
of love, my heart beats for you,
Shouting to the world,
“You are mine, my only treasure”.
But love seemed like a
mirage, I spent chasing after,
Every time I came
closer, it seemed so far away.
The battle of head and
heart seems to go on forever,
Holding my broken
heart, even my head planned to betray.
Facing
the world as I fight to prove I love you,
Judging eyes and with
words no more.
I stand feeling
nothing, awaiting the verdict,
Being damned and shaken
to the core.
Still fighting and
Feeling free, breaking shackles,
With hope in my heart
and my mind.
I seek out the road
looking back at what I wrong,
Seeking forgiveness and
love that I may find.
