you said that that time was the last
you said the relationship would finally last
but you stole my heart away from my chest
and just left me hanging in the darkness
so i stand here alone and crying
thinking of how it would be dying
but everyday is a new one
and eventually i will get out of this darkness and see the sun.

"I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift, who will use it up and wring it out and drag it around like a favorite sweater." -SN
