Looking Back

by forever fallen smiles   May 9, 2008


I used to scream but no one would hear
Hopeless, longing for it to end,
For this depression to leave my body.
I look back so far in this life
And ask how it got so bad.
How at one point I wanted to end it
And not care how many people I would hurt.

All I wanted to feel is the pain gone.
For someone to reach out enough
To get over my anger and my guard,
Past a person who was not me
And tell me it is okay,
To make everything better.
Everynight wipe away my tears
Because I knew when I would come home
They would fall from my eyes again.
But I had to fall
I had to be betrayed and left exposed
To be left weak.

I look back
I would not change it.
I would not be this person
If I did not feel that pain.

Life will always be full of suffering
Only to bring joy.
So look forward to the future
But always learn from your past.

Hopefull and Happy,
