Alexis Andrews Poem
I may not be enough for you
But I am enough for me
Perhaps it was wrong from the start
Maybe I knew that
Although it wouldn’t last
I figured I could at least try
Whether it was for you or me
I have yet to realize
There is no one to blame
Other than myself of course
Do not let your heart shatter
Because the pain is not worth it
Another will replace me
She will be better for you
Because if I stayed
You would have been trapped
Nothing good can come from me
I now realize that
A waste of time I can be
I have wasted much of yours
Yet I do not fear for you
Because if you love someone
Such as I
You let them go
If they return it was fate
If not they will find another
As will I
So with love and care
I bid you farewell
Many doors are now open
I wish you well

Alexis Andrews Poem
Please hold my hand
Don't let me go
Am I squeezing to tight
Sorry I didn't know
Don't make me go back
Or i'll be all alone
In a strangers place
That they tell me is home
No don't let go
I'm sorry I swear
I shouldn't have said that
I just thought you cared
I just had to tell someone
Before I fell apart
From the inside out
To my already shattered heart
Your fingers are slipping
What did I say
But I can only whisper I'm sorry
As I watch you walk away

It was when I fell
That I knew it shouldn't be
I can't fall for you

Alexis Andrews Poem
The sobbing wont subside
Tears streaming down my face
You say its because you're
young
Because i'm in a different place
Always telling me you love me
Secret whispers I believe
Telling me all about our future
Our happy little family
I know i'm far away
Oh how much I regret
You told me you cheated
I pray I soon forget
The pain is to strong
I feel so alone
The only person I truly trusted
Found a new home
I want to give you another
chance
To tell me you will stay true
But you tell me you will do it
again
Because she is now close to
you
The sobbing gets louder
As I fall apart
Laying here wondering
Why I gave you my heart
I love you much
I wish you could see
But you are convinced
You never made me happy
Just the thought of you
Lit up my day
Now I lay her wondering
If you should stay
My entire future was with you
Promises written in your eyes
Now I look towards the same
way
All I can read are lies
Did you ever truly love me
Or was this all just a game
You tore my heart to pieces
again
We will never be the same
I give you one last chance
To say you will be with me
You slowly deny and me
My tears flow freely

Alexis Andrews Poem
When you walked away I said I wouln't cry
but I almost did when you said goodbye
when you did come home you weren't very well
you said you weren't hurting but you were I could tell
I stayed by your side as your breath slid away
whispered to you on your final day
as you took your last breath you told me don't cry
no matter what happens this isn't goodbye
you now have peace my soldier
lay at rest
because you my american soldier were one of the best
as time goes past as you asked I don't cry
I kept my word because you promised this wasn't goodbye.

Alexis Andrews Poem
Just because you say sorry
Does not mean your truthful
It doesn't take away the sting
It does not lessen the pain
It does not make the bruises fade
It does not bring back the lost
Just because we're blood
Does't mean you get forgivness
Because you won't get it
Because your wrong
Because im finally done
Just because I'm strong
Doesn't mean a thing
I still don't sleep soundly
I still can't control my emotions
I still try to hide the tears
I just want to know
What did I do so wrong?

Alexis Andrews Poem
Last night I lay awake
After I was told
You had found someone
Love for me grew old
You went for her
While promised to me
When knowledge came
I cried tears to fill the sea
My heart had shattered
You had torn my soul
I hope someday
I can be whole
But that was last night
My thoughts have taken a turn
I wont let your hurt me this morning
I refused to wallow and burn
My spirit will remain high
Because it seems you werent for me
I hope that it was worth it
That she makes you happy

Alexis Andrews Poem
Piece by piece we set it up
Near the end
I had about had enough
Next came the decorations
Different sizes and all
Thought I couldn’t reach the top
For I was not that tall
Yet when it was finished
It was such a grand sight
As we turned the lights, off
It lit up the night
We lay on the floor
Gazing up at the tree
When she walked on in
And sat next to me
Looking up high
Up at the tree
She looked back down
Back towards me
What she said next
Shocked us both you know
She said daddy, sissy
You are my hero
I will remember that for years to come
The way she said that to me
Every year at this time
When we put up the Christmas tree

Alexis Andrews Poem
A world filled with confusion
With every little delusion
Casting its shadow on life
Pushing against her in strife
Holding the glass she saw everything
That her hasty decisions had to bring
The damp glass began to drip
From her hands it began to slip
Till it would hit the floor with a crash
Shattering to broken glass
All of her life that she saw
Was now in freefall
Dispensed in the air
She couldn't even care
As her dreams slipped past
Out of her reach so fast
She now lost her world
In the amber liquid swirls
