You

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I think myself a happy man Thanks most to you My dreams I see I almost touch I almost hold to me You show me hopes And once there’s none You smile at me To me And make me feel a man Not full of boyish fancies Young dreams too far to see Eyes open you guide me Hold me, lift me And give me what I can’t believe My best friend My truest friend My only trust My companion My loyal crutch And yet you say I can’t I couldn’t I never will You laugh at me Spit in my face Tear down my words Bare to me the real The lonely soul Why can’t you love Without judgement Or angers vent You slap and hurt You cast me down And their I lie Await your return Without you I’m shit A hollow place A filthy wreck When you stand by me I feel I can fly Touch heaven Reach the sky Nothing can deny I want to be free My dreams to see If my hopes not fade Then I must be you And you accept me You are mine And I am always yours To love forever Together forever Until the end, mine ownThis is introspective, you is me. i think.
