Danielle Stoops Poet Bio

My Best Friend

In one December night 
You changed my whole life
You had no right
You took what was mine to give
You shattered my soul 
And left me to pick up the pieces
How is a 14 year old supposed to put herself back together
The worst thing is that i trusted you
You gained my trust and stole it away
In just one night
Now what was once only nightmares 
Haunts my waking hours 
You crep from my dreams and became my reality
Everytime i look in the mirror
I see myself as damaged 
I see pieces of you rubbed into my skin. 
I tried to wash it away
Try to cut you away, 
Try to exhale you with the smoke
I cant get away
Until
She saved me
Put me together piece by piece
She pulled me from you
Chipped you away with her love
You are now nothing
You hang out in my nightmares
Waiting
But you will not break her barrier
She keeps you away
She is my life preserver 
My savior
My best friend.

I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
