Nocturnal

I have lived my life
For many years trying to please
Others more than myself,
Always worrying what people
Thought about me
And not even once relying
On what I thought about myself.

In many ways I wished I could
Be likable,
Wished to be normal
Wished to actually have a reason
To smile and get along with others,
In which I always found myself
Setting myself up for a fail
More than actually succeeding
For once in my life.

This is where my night becomes my day
And my day becomes my night.

In order for me to escape
My pain,
I must put all of the hate
Behind me,
Let go of the past
And forget what destroyed my
Mentality.
Avoiding humanity all together
By becoming nocturnal.

My Angel

For as long as I can remember
You have always been in my heart
Even when we were miles apart
We never really lost that spark,
From the good times
Through the bad,
It was always the warmth of your
Loving embrace
That I wished I always had.

Seven whole years I spent
Dreaming and wishing
Even though I was with someone else
I wished it was you instead of her,
Looking at your beautiful angelic face,
That’s what I would say was always
My happy place.

About the only thing I can say
At this very moment
Is that I am so sorry I didn’t have the
Courage to come back home,
It took me seven years
To be able to face my fear
And now here I am
Finally after all of these years
Home with you.

My Angel
You are the spark that ignited my fire
The twinkle in my eye
And the warmth of my soul
With this
No matter how rough life may get
I shall never again leave you
For I am with you to the end of time
And it is with that,
Where I belong is exactly
Where I am at.
