Poem (age 13)

Life was dark
Lonely and cold
I felt like i was a failure
to behold
i just wanted
to curl up in a ball and die
and i would constantly
break down and cry
it was just so hard
i couldnt live my life
it was like pain,
someone stabbing you with a knife
it was like suffering,
when every breath can kill
it was like dying,
time just stands still
but then i met you
gave me a reason to go on
i saw a light in you
a long awaited dawn
life was bright
and full of hope
no reason to cry
no reason to mope
i just wanted
for you to never leave
you were my miracle
my reason to believe
i just wanted you to know
you brighten up my day
dust off the cobwebs
chase the shadows away
but then you decieved me
made the shadows come back
bringing back the darkeness
id just began to lack
but its my fault
im the one to blame
we were just friends
then a new girl came
a girl that made you happy
whenever she was there
a girl that youd always
let her know you care
and it tore me apart
to see you with her
my body would start aching
my eyes would blur
so now i sit in darkness
my life full of regret
but my love for you that you could have returned
i will never forget
