What was lost?A Poem by LankyPain, anger, confusion these are the things we feel when someone we love leaves us. So i decided i would try to write my heart out.All those smiles All those kisses Every word of encouragement And every moment of fun All that we once had You cast off in your march to the sun You look towards the brightest future But as soon as night sets you will see There is no one No one As good for you, as me I gave you what you needed When you needed it most I was always encouraging when you followed dreams I watched as you gave them wings And when those wings collapsed like they always did I was the one that caught you Before you fell right on your head I bet Iccarus himself Wished he had someone like me To catch him when he fell Trying to fly on waxen wing So what have you lost? Nothing you think is important At least not to you now But think hard about this Life is short And regrets are many Are you willing to risk losing your best friend? It may not seem it now… But soon Oh very soon It will You got your wish You are Totally Utterly Unwaveringly Alone You lost your only constant ally Now all that’s left Are those petty people Who judge your every step When you are ready I will be awaiting But don’t wait too long For my wounds are great indeed You have severed off a piece of me And should it ever regrow My hide will be forever tough Just enough to protect a heart Whose feeble attempts to beat are too pathetic to describe and whose love for you was so intense it will never fully subside © 2010 LankyAuthor's Note
