Then You Know How I Feel

By Desdemona

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Have you ever felt scared of the dark, but your a light switch away? Then you know how I feel. Have you ever felt a presence, when your kneeling down to pray? Then you know how I feel. Have you ever had one of those days, when you really need a friend? Then you know how I feel. Have you ever had a relationship, you swore would never end? Then you know how I feel. Have you ever been so excited, you felt like you could fly? Then you know how I feel. Have you ever been in so much pain, you felt like you could die? Then you know how I feel. Have you ever taken a shower, and felt dirty by the end of the day? Then you know how I feel. Have you ever been so speechless, not a word that you could say? Then you know how I feel. Have you ever done something in life, you later would regret? Then you know how I feel. If you answered "YES" to all these questions, then... I know how "You" feel, I bet.
