My Good-Bye

in a flash of light
there goes your life
in a blink of an eye
everything turns white
all things you didn't do
all words you never said
and the last thing you did
was get into bed
the impact so hard 
as you close your eyes
who would have known
you couldn't say good-bye
not being able to help it
you drift off to sleep
never to wake again
in a slumber so deep
everyone's around you
you barely hear a thing
faintly in the background
heavenly angels sing
you weren't ready
it just wasn't your time
but you now have one thing
and that is peace of mind
so we sleep more soundly
knowing you're in our mist
though with each passing day
you are always missed.

I Promise

i promise to be your warm spot to cuddle up tp when you feel cold
i promise to be the soft spot to land if you should ever fall
i promise to be the first to say i'm sorry even if i am right
i promise to always be there morning noon and night
i promise to always be there in times of joy and sorrow
i promise to keep you happy and looking forward to tomorrow
i promise to support you in all your decisions even if i dont agree
i promise to make you my first priority
i promise to make a new memory with you each and every day
i promise to always listen when you have something to say
i promise to always love you until the very end
i promise to always be here should you ever need a friend
i promise to never make you cry 
i promise to never tell a lie
i promise to give you strength whenever you feel weak
i promise to never give you a reason to ever distrust me
i promise to cherish you and our love
i promise to never take your love for granted
i promise to never lose faith in you
i promise to trust you in everything you do
i promise to work with you to resolve any arguements
i promise to never let you feel alone at any given moment
i promise to try to stay calm and never say things out of anger
i promise to be your shelter from the storm and keep you out of danger
i promise to always be pround of you
i promise to make you proud of me
i promise to find new ways to keep the fires of passion burning
i promise to be your partner and give yolu a love everlasting

Lesson Learned

the anger that builds when i think of your lies
you will never again see a tear in my eyes
the pain that i felt with every game that you played
all the times my heart broke, all the promises you made
you never kept your word and so i had to leave
i can't believe i was so naive
i opened my heart and completely let you in
i guess in the end i was punished for my sin
knowing it wouldn't work yet still trying so hard
hoping one day you would let down your guard
but i was wrong in more ways than one
and it's finally over, it's said and done
i've learned my lesson and it won't happen again
thanks to you, i've lost faith in all men
maybe one day i'll be open for love
and finally get everything i dreamed of.

Sleep

it finally happened
my heart finally broke
from a real deep sleep
a finally awoke
i opened my eyes
and i've seen the light
i can't take no more
i don't want to fight
there's nothing left to do
nothing more to say
i just can't get through
you're stuck in your ways
reality hurts too much
it's penetrating my soul
i want to go back to sleep
where i'm in control

You

the last voice in my head at night
the first face i see when i wake up each day
the best thing that has ever happened to me
the path that leads the way
the vision of better days
the strength that pulls me through
the smile that keeps me going
the sky that stays blue
the words that lift me up
the arms that keep me warm
the eyes that never lie
the shelter from the storm
the heart that knows no limits
the boundaries that are never crossed
the mind that holds no secret
the faults that are somehow lost
the chance of a lifetime
the wings that help me fly
the leap of unveiling faith
the willingness to try
the sacrifice you make
the promise by which we're bound
the intimacy we share
the happiness we've found
the never ending conversation
the passion we both thrive
the failure that's not an option
the fairytale thats come alive
the dream that never ends
the day i fell in love
the man i fell in love with
the life i've always dreamed of
a relationship that will always last
the fantasy that came true
the one i'm going to share it with
YOU

Last Minute

everything suddenly changed
in that last minute that passed
i never saw it coming
it all happened so fast
never knew it would be so painful
impact as sharp as a knife
you were in the wrong
yet it cost me my life
so here i am gone
as you go about your day
trust that your day is coming
and there'll be a price to pay
this all happened because of you
you left me here to die
you saw what you did
but strolled right on by
so i watched from above
while my body lay on the ground
but the sight is so blurry
and i vaguely hear a sound
everyone tries to help out
but i'm lifeless now
and though you left me here
i forgive you somehow
everything suddenly changed
in that last moment that passed
i never saw it coming
it all happened so fast

Secret Admire

i occasionally see you around
and i really like your style
every time i see you
it always makes me smile
i get little butterflies
and i dont know why
we've never really talked
all we do is say hi
i dont know if your taken
or how old you are
im way too shy to ask
so i just watch you from afar
i know i shouldnt be doing this
ive never done anything like this before
but you seem so interesting
and i would love to know more
but until i get the courage
to finally talk to you
writing you this poem
is the best that i can do
so ill sit back in silence
with this feeling that wont go away
and hopefully i can find the strength
to tell you who i am someday

Here In My Heart

somewhere so heavenly
you can go if you try
where you can be happy
and there's no more lies
there's no more tears
and no more pain
no more feeling 
like you're going insane
no more confusion
everything is so clear
somewhere so safe
there's nothing to fear
its out of the darkness
there's only light
there's nothing but love
and no one fights
no more separation
we are like one
no more misery
those days are done
someplace where smiles
are only the start
somewhere not far
it's here in my heart

Unanswered Questions

last night i looked up at the sky
and wondered if you heard me cry
i'm trying hard to confide
exactly what i feel inside
can you feel me, do you know
should i stay or should i go
will things change, will they evolve
so many problems i just can't solve
why is the truth so far away
and calls only come once a day
why cant i ever come first
i can't figure out what's worst
why do i always slip your mind
you forget about me time after time
i've tried expressing my feelings to you
but there's only so much that i can do
for the last time you made me cry
my heart can't stand another lie
why can't you decide what you want
before it tears my heart apart
why can't you once just think of me
and be the man i know you can be
why dont you ever stand by your word
it doesnt seem that absurd
to do the things you say you are
instead of distancing yourself so far
there's only so much that i can take
before my heart completely breaks
i didnt think i asked for much
to hear your voice, to feel your touch
was it just too much to ask
maybe too big of a task
because your hardly here, im here alone
always waiting by the phone
for a call that seems to never come
at times my whole body gets numb
but you dont seem to get it, its just not fair
all i want is for my man to be there
i keep thinking your going to change
but your always just a bit out of range
and though i love you with all my heart
day by day you push us apart
you always seem to make me wait
your always just a day too late
and you never have a reason why
doesn't seem like you even try
so if its what you want me to do
i'll finally say goodbye to you
and leave you alone once and for all
i wont write and i wont call
just know that this one thing is true
i really really did love you!

My Man

my man by definition would probably be
someone who loves me unconditionally
someone who's there whenever i call
and loves me for me; flaws and all
someone who thinks of me and never forgets
everyday we'll relive the day we first met
of course we fight, but we work it out
we'll trust each other without any doubts
there'll be bad times, but we'll always pull through
we'll be there for each other, that's what couples do.
