Love Poem: Think

Think

Lonely is hard to feel but when you have lost all hope 
It’s the only thing that becomes real.
Hoping these feelings will collide 
Wishing that you would walk back into my life, 

These thoughts are the only things that help me get by.
Seeing your face in pictures that had been put away, 
Have done nothing but keep me awake, 
I ask myself questions late at night and I always wonder……

~How do I take these dreams and turn them into life…
Can you help these feelings to subside?
Can you help me rebuild my life?
Can you please stand by my side tonight?

I see the sky turning black.
Please take the knife out of my back
It didn’t help to stop that scratch!
Just bring me some rope
Because I know you will leave me hanging with little hope.

Tell me where to begin 
Because this rope is becoming thin.
Seconds tick by and I don’t wonder why.
I know you just want me to die!

Feet dangling above the floor
I see you open the door.
Running towards me crying and screaming 
I just had to kill my inner demons.

Before the light begins to fade
I think about the look on your face.
I smiled one last time as I looked into your eyes,
Because I realized.. 

You helped those feelings subside.
You were going to help me rebuild my life.
You were going to stand by my side tonight!
