Things I didn't say
I never had a chance to tell you
That you became my reason to smile
I simply hadn't the slightest idea
That I'd have you for just a short while
Things happened unbeknownst to me
And you were taken as quick as you came
But since I got the chance to know you
My life will never be the same
So, if somehow you can hear me now
Please know these words are true
You are truly someone special
And I was head over heels for you
The light in your eyes that sparkled for me
Was the clue I'd been waiting for
You were the man of my dreams
And now my wounded heart remains sore
If I could be given just one more chance
I will be sure to let you know
That I am in so love with you
And this time I'll never let you go

My Savior
I have not met you but I see you each night in my dreams. I know someday I will be with you, you're the only thing that can console my screams. Your beautiful face relieves me nightly from my awful nightmares. Just in the nick of time, you are always there. I wonder if this is some sort of special revelation... Sent to let me know that you're my real life salvation? I am still unaware the meaning of it all, I just know that you'll be there to catch me when I fall. You are the one who is sent to come and rescue me. And for that I owe you my love throughout all of eternity.

My Eternal Love
I see your face in my dreams
I contemplate what this means
Are you the one that's made for me?
Are you destined to be next to me?
The feeling I get when I look into your eyes
Is unlike any other, I get butterflies
Do you think that it's the universe's sign?
To let me know you're meant to be mine?
I need to know how you feel
Do you believe all the signs are real?
If you could, help me to understand
If you believe, please take my hand
I promise I will love you forever
And we can spend eternity together

Without A Hell
I remember a time not too long ago
When I was but a child ready to learn and grow
The great wide world lay majestically before me
A world full of wonder & opportunity
Those days, now way back then
Still held hopeful for my fellow men
It was lifetimes ago or so it seems
Back when I still clung to hopes and dreams
Now I look at how much has changed
I could never have foreseen a life so strange
One that was doomed before the start
A life that was tainted by the heart
I had enough love to fill the seas
But the world quickly brought me to my knees
It left me mangled, badly hurt and scarred
I tried to miss the pain, I tried so hard
But the weight of this world became far too heavy
And my shattered heart was left so unsteady
My only choice to protect it now
Was to numb it to all the pain somehow
The saddest part is what comes next
A reality that no one might have guessed
My broken heart left pained and frail
Succumbed to the damage the world would impale
I grew bitter and my heart went cold
The world has left me weak and old
The sun no longer shines in my skies
The beauty of life ripped from my eyes
Nothing now can ever be the same
My skies have darkened from all the rain
I just miss the life I had so long ago
Before I knew the eternal fate of my soul
Back when I still harbored my hopes and dreams
When I was still blinded to everything
My infancy kept me seeing through a veil
In a world that existed without a hell

Greedy Ones
Calculated actions bring into existence a fear unlike any other
Who will go next? Me, my son, or my mother?
Evil men in the background brought this fear into the world
It consumes the lives of many, indiscriminate of boy or of girl
It's purpose is simple, to further fatten the pockets of the wealthy
While those who aren't rich fall sick and alarmingly unhealthy
How could such evil exist in so many human hearts?
How could there be no remorse for all the lives your greed departs?
Help me understand how your brain justifies such pain
Your cash won't go with you when you die, only your consequences remain

KEEP GOING
It's funny how life works at times, ya know?
When your a child you think you'll never grow old
You never foresee any chance of failure or pain
But as you grow older, that oblivousness don't remain
Things begin happening and can take a turn for the worse
For some it may seem their victim of some curse
Then there are those days that can get very lonely
You should've taken your mother's advice you think, if only...
It is times like these that make you question life's purpose
Is there a reason for it all or is it just some kind of circus
But there is some advice I can give, friend to friend
Never lose hope and don't wish for the end
In time things will get better if only you believe
Nothing is by accident, don't be so naive
There is some bad times but there will also be good
Not everything we face will always be understood
Just look inside your heart and find the love within
I think that's the only way we can ever truly mend
Each life that has been placed here on this planet earth
Has been sent with a purpose that was destined from birth
And just because you can't see it doesn't mean it's not true
Somewhere, someone will be taught a lesson from you
In the times we feel lonely we must learn to keep going
And when tough times come, it's our opportunity for growing

Scars
Proof of the damage you inflicted upon me
Is still left behind for the world to see
The remnants left there for me to wear
Are a permanent reminder of the despair
It started out as joy then grew to love
I truly believed you were the one I dreamed of
But much too soon the love began to fade
And before long I found myself betrayed
You purposely left my heart in quite a mess
But it never mattered nonetheless
You aren't sorry and my pain never mattered
It didn't bother you that my heart was shattered
You view my scars as a sort of victory
That have been etched quite deep to reveal our history
I don't understand it but that matters none
Because the war is over and you have won
I'll take what's left and be on my way
These scars on my heart will never go away

To Attain Success
To sit around waiting for success to fall into your lap
Is a choice that you'll one day refer to as a mishap
Success is only attained by chasing your dreams
And knowing that nothing is as hard as it seems
Never let failure stop you in your tracks
Strength is derived from these unfortunate setbacks
#success #inspire #strength #courage #writcopoem
But they're only meant to teach you, not beat you
So don't ever give up or let anything defeat you
