Don'T Hurt Like Me

I never meant for you to fall Never wanted you to hurt like me So I talked you into taking down your wall To only make you see Love is a splendor thing, love is meant to be I wanted to lift you up high So high you could touch the sky And didn't want you to come down Hoped you would spread your wings to fly and not stay earth bound Now crying in silence is your only sound And pain in your heart is all that remains But you will overcome to win another day You believe you have nothing to gain And now you're hurting just as me and sadly exactly the same Damn it why does life play these stupid games But you can rise above it as long as you try It's okay to feel broken and it's okay to cry But don't be down for long You have to be are you are going to stay strong Loving him is not wrong he will see soon enough just where he belongs You have to make your own mistakes Chances they are there for the taking But I wish you didn't have to hurt like me and hope you don't leave your heart forsaken

There are times when we need to help others and give a hand. This is just a natural way of life as God has helped us. I like the flow of the words in this poem and the essence of your thoughts. As stated, love is always a splendid thing. Great job! ~Joseph
