Used To be

Used To be

A Poem by Julio Cesar Ruiz

You know who I'm talkin about,

I speak to you without a doubt,

that you know he exists,

I can tell by the bruises on your wrists,

I want you to trust me,

you know that I can see,

that he's no good,

and don't tell me its his mood,

because he's always like this,

and I see all that goes amiss,

I see what he does to you,

and don't tell me its not true,

because I can see it in your eyes,

I can see past all the lies,

that he makes you tell,

and I know that he knows as well,

that I know what he's done,

and he fears that I will be the one,

who makes him pay,

so listen as I say,

I'm sorry for leaving your side,

sorry that my love for you I tried to hide,

I never should've left,

and I wasn't there as you wept,

and your tears fell without end,

and for that I am no longer a good friend,

for a friend wouldn't leave,

and its hard to believe,

that you could ever forgive me,

for now I see,

that after I promised to protect you,

that I have failed you,

though I will try to makes things right,

and I'll be with you day and night,

know that I will never leave you again,

and I will try to protect you till the very end.

Well, s**t if thats a nightmare, I don't want to know what you'll do to some guys that hurt your friends that are girls.Now that would be a nightmare. You've always shown that you want to protect those most close to you and I think the dream shows that it this thought works in the subconcious too.Nicw job...Believe is in there! (Count 1)
