Once Happy, Now Gone.

Once Happy, Now Gone.

A Poem by Branden Matney

Once Happy,
Now Gone.
Life is worth living,
Now I'm a pawn.
Give me hope,
Give me dreams.
The silent kill, 
With the silent screams.
It requires trust,
But it can hurt.
It has lust,
But it'll leave you in the dirt.
Everyone's a critic,
As far as I can see.
Now I'm a person,
It didn't hurt you.. but me.
Breaking bones,
Is what can happen.
But those words,
Are what can sadden.
I know I'm not perfect,
No one can be.
But for once in my life,
You were perfect for me.
I express my feelings,
Through what's left within.
I can't help these dealings,
All I seem to do is sin.
Breaking a heart,
Is half of the battle.
Stepping in my shoes,
You'll know the hassle.
For autism and help,
Don't speak out through the day.
At night I'm a hidden,
A cat, a stray.
I gave in, 
And you destroyed my trust.
I found out,
All you had was lust.
I'm sorry for the wrong,
I'm not sorry for the right.
At least you weren't harsh,
You showed me the light.
Once again,
I'm down on my knees.
Waiting on someone,
Someone who stops and sees.
I'm no ordinary person,
My mind thinks in ways.
Ways that you can't imagine,
It actually scares me for days.
Now the one,
Who actually shows the truth.
Let it shine,
Let it go through the roof.
I'm not easy to understand,
For I am a weird one.
I am just me,
I am one for a random pun.
I may smile at my worst,
I may frown at my best.
But just know,
You stood out from the rest.
I hope you see,
Someday you know.
How much you meant to me,
Is stronger than the cold of the snow.
My love for you,
Is still growing stronger.
But knowing this feeling,
I can't hold onto life much longer.
I am crazy,
I know I'm weird.
You are like my daisy,
In my field that once appeared.
Giving up on life,
Is all that I can see.
Because earlier today,
You gave up on me.
