I Thought by David
When I called out for help
When I waited for you to defend me
When I was helpless and alone
I thought you would defend me
When I cried out in pain
When I wanted you to comfort me
When I was hopeless and alone
I thought you would comfort me
When I broadcast my thoughts
When I wished you would stand by my side
When I was unsteady and alone
I thought you would stand by my side
But all those times
You were somewhere else
You weren't beside me
You were in your own world
You didn't give me a thought
Even when I really needed one
And so I was left there
to be attacked, ravaged, assaulted
And you said you were sorry
But you weren't
Not on the inside
So it happened again
And again
You still said it
But by then I knew
that you didn't mean it
Not one little bit
And I didn't trust you
Never again
Would I let that happen
Not to me,
Not to me
Not again
And so I went inside myself
And I never came out
My heart, soul, and mind
Are still in there
In the place no one sees
In the place no one can touch
In the place no one can hurt
And that’s where they'll stay
Forever.
This was fun poem to write, and part of it really expresses my feelings, but part of it doesn't. Kinda weird... up to you to figure out which parts are real and which aren't.
