Ever Since You Left

by WakingFreedom   Jun 19, 2009


The hunger in my heart,
Never seems to cease.
The hatred in my soul,
Venom it has released.
Ever since you left,
This is what I have become,
Lonely, tired, and weak,
Worst of this all, oh so numb.
My inspiration to fly
Without my wings,
Lies broken on this floor.
Now I am a puppet on these strings.
Forced to the left,
Forced to the right,
Plopped here, sat there.
I am just losing this fight.
Until finally I pulled and I tugged
Won victory with love and encouragement,
I was torn from the resentful lines,
Now I run free, living in enjoyment.
Ever since you left,
I have become new.
The importance of life,
Inside me grew.
Blossomed in through my veins
And sprouted with smiles.
I am here for a reason
And I am going to make it worthwhile.
Thank you for teaching me,
The new way to live.
I will miss you,
But here, life is what I'm here to give.
