Reset

Don't be afraid to go back in time and see the life you lived. Artificial smiles in a world stained with pain. People you trusted, you deemed as your friends. Only later they were icing on a cake. No one's understood you. A book by its cover, they threw you away. Your heart's vulnerable, breaking to pieces day-after-day. Don't give up. It's not the end. If everyone's turned their backs on you, know I'll be always there for you 'till the end. Like shadows that never fade, it's inevitable for your angel not to walk away. So don't look down in tears. Just take my hand and I'll kill away the pain. I'll do all that I can to help you shine bright once again. Through death and hell, I'll forever be your friend. On a bed of nails, we won't turn pale. Don't give up. It's not the end. When everyone's turned their backs on you, know I'll be always there for you even after my end. Six feet under, my heart won't mend. Everything that has an ending has a beginning in the end. It's not the other way around. So turn around, my dear, 'cause it's time to leave our mark. It's the series finale of what had been. Two will become One. One will leave a legacy for the world to learn its inconsistencies. Let's hit the reset and see the bliss tonight. Because the end is not the end.

Phillip - A truly amazing poem - It is rare that I read a poem that feels like I could have written it by life experience - You did a truly amazing job conveying your true feelings - We have had similar experiences of being turned away and in finding love - God Bless
