New Places, New Things

New school
New life
New home
New wife
New memories
New friends
New jobs
New hobbies
New Ideas
New treasures
New kids
New toys
New sounds
New sights
New things
New frights
New fears
New fights
But we will soar up to new heights.

Then and Now

I used to think that finding true love was impossible.
I never used to believe the fairy tales' happy ending was real.
I used to think there was no such thing as a good person.
I never wanted to live.
I wanted to become so numb that nothing mattered to me.
I wanted to learn how to laugh again and be happy.
I wanted to love again.
I wanted to have a home.
I wanted someone to really care about me and not be pretend.
I wanted a better life.

Now, I want to keep going and live for another moment.
I believe in true love and happy endings.
I believe there are good people.
I can laugh and be happy.
I love my family and my life.
My husband loves me more than anything or anyone else.
I have the best life that I could ever wish for.
I live life now, not survive it, and I love to be able to feel again.
I can laugh because I'm happy, and I can be myself.

Hope

She sits
By the phone
Waiting
For him
To call.

She cries
At night
When he doesn't
Call.

She writes
Letters
To him
Hoping
He'll write
Back.

Late

It's late.
She's singing.
Waiting
For him.

He's late.
She's crying.
Waiting
For him.

She's late.
He's dying.
Waiting
For her.

It's Over

Today she screamed

It's over.

I never want to see you

Again.

I hate you.

I wish you would go away

And Die.

You never loved me

Like I loved you.

You took me for granted

Too many times

So

Leave me alone

Forever.

I gave you

Too many

Second chances.

You've used them all

And abused

My feelings.

I cared

About you.

Now I realize

What a fool

I have been.

Letting you

Walk all over me.

Letting you

Determine who I am

Who I will be.

Don't ever

Call.

Don't ever

Come

To see me.

Don't write

To me.

Don't tell me that

You love me.

You don't

Really care

At all

About me.

I want to

Forget

You.

I want to

Forget

I ever knew

You.

I want to

Erase

My biggest mistake -

Knowing you.

Asshole.
