Midnight Thoughts

☆S O A R☆

There was a time,
When I was sad,
Felt all alone,
Never felt anything remotely similar to "glad".

Then one day I met you,
Who saw me from the inside,
Who wondered at my secrets,
And what I tried to hide.

You always told bad jokes,
Just to try and get me to smile,
You'd ask me questions,
And make me feel worthwhile.

Then one day came,
When you didn't tell a joke,
You didn't smile at me,
And you didn't say "hello".

I asked you what was wrong,
You shrugged and said you're fine,
You said you've felt this way for awhile,
Felt like you're going insane inside.

I asked you what you meant,
And you replied with nothing,
You made me ponder the reasons,
Of why you were bluffing.

Then one day you told me everything,
The truths,
The lies,
The hope.

You explained to me,
What you do,
Whenever you're home-
Whenever you're alone.

I heard someone whisper in my ear,
And tell me that you're gone,
But that's nothing that I want to hear,
And I fled like there was a gun.

What did you mean,
When you said that you're done,
That you can't fight anymore,
And that your demons won?

Is this what you wanted,
To hurt me so bad,
To rip my heart out of my chest,
And leave me feeling mad?

I miss who you were,
Come back to me, please,
Don't let the demons win,
Please continue to fight and breathe.

Oh I hope you know how much I love you,
How much you mean to me,
How every time that I was sad,
You'd be the bees knees.

Thank you for the memories,
I'm sad there'll be no more,
But I'll see you in another life,

When I finally grow back my wings and soar.
