Poems from the Heart

I feel so alone I'm broken inside
It's almost as if you don't care
why can't I conquer this enemy
I reach out to grab you but you're already gone
I'm so easily crushed and you were never there
Why do I feel so lost in this world full of those who love me
I need you by my side but all I feel is emptiness inside
I feel the tears coming but it's too late to stop them
Forever is in my future but it seems so far away
What can I do to change this fate of mine
I long to be someone I'm not
No one can understand this pain I feel
The world is so far gone how will any of us survive
It was you who reached out and lifted me up
Who am I that you would show such compassion
Lifting me out of the slime and muck you saved me
You wiped away my tears and put a smile on my face
Life in this world is such a small existance
All I want is to break free
Free from the burdens and the cares
Free from all that tears me down
There are so few who lift me up
So few who are gentle in this world
And it's almost not worth it
But it was you who made it bearable
You who picked up my broken pieces from the ground
You who showed me I was alive
Alive to dream and alive to share
To share with this lost and broken world
That there is hope for those who are suffering
That there's someone who knows who they are
Someone to show them that they're beautiful inside
