What Happened
As a child,
I lived a good life.
As a child,
I lived my dreams.
You entered my life,
And made it special.
You showed me what to do,
And made things right.
But then you died away from me,
A little at a time.
And soon I was alone again,
Hiding from the light.
The world,
The truth.
That I'm alone.
That you left me in a world,
Without a hope.
That no one really cares,
About the real me.
I tried to kill the pain away,
And found it would not die.
But my heart and soul,
They cracked and broke.
Hurting even more.
So I cried…
I cried for the pain,
And for the sadness.
For the wasted life,
And the death,
Brought upon the innocent.
I walked outside,
And sat beneath a willow.
Where I cried for you,
And the death of my own soul.
And maybe someday,
You and me together,
Will speak of what happened,
Long ago…
