Before and After Love

Living life surrounded by people, yet everything feels so empty.. I'v never felt so alone. I go through everyday slowly fading away.. All I want is to be able to say tommorrows a new day and I'll finally be ok.. Tommorrow comes and nothings ok.. I'm barly holding on just painfully waiting for a brighter day.. I lay down at night silently breaking down inside, so I mend the only way I know how.. I turn to the bottle cause it never lets me down.. I take a deep breath as the pain slowly drowns.. I'm giving up on life. I just cant find a reason to fight.. Something keeps me going when the darkness devours all light.. The only thing left that can bring me life and it hurts so bad that i just still cant be alright.. All thats left is peices and it makes me feel weak.. Then just when im falling a hand pulls me up.. My whole world suddenly changed in everyway.. Im finally starting to see everything will be ok.. You took my heart and held it tight.. Led me out of my darkness and into your light. I couldnt find feelings to even care, then you filled my soul with the love we share. I dont know where i'd be at today if you wernt here to make it all ok.. Now everymorning I wake up and smile.. Just being by your side makes life worth while..

Anyone who has been in love can relate to the highs and lows of love you have eloquently expressed in this knowing poem. You have to keep hope alive until you meet the love of your life. Ask and expect an answer! (Ask the divine for help I mean). Cheers on your HM. Great poem! # 7 ; )
