Love me until im me again

I wrote this poem in FEB 2015 and its been collecting dust.

Love me until i’m me again,
until i pick up all my pieces again,
make you see what you saw back then,
just promise me you’ll never leave again,
and love me until i’m me again.

You asked me if I remembered,
the things we used to do,
you wanted me to see,
the things you used to,
and all while I kept my head down,
I remembered what you said,
I smiled at the thought of me,
and who I was back then.

And as I picked up the pieces,
you were there holding my hand,
helping me,
and showing me,
who I was again,
you never once left my side,
and always told me it was okay,
i was lost in this crazy world,
yet, with me you stayed.

I can never thank you enough,
for sticking this out with me,
loving me through it all,

even when I wasn’t me...

Only when one learns to give some time and understand other human beings dilema then he can afford to give a time and with a positive note things starts rolling.

Very beautifully written. I liked the last line 'loving me through it all even when I wasn't me'

Trying to realign the pieces after someone has gone and fill the gap left behind can be incredibly hard. Sometimes though, the right person can come at the right time and those pieces aren't so hard to fix. I like the message you express and it's one a lot of people can relate to. Some parts of this come across as "sing-song" in quality and overall it's well written; strongly backed by the emotions displayed. Thank you for sharing!

How comforting it is to know that there is someone for you in every thick and thin of life.. I liked reading this.. Just a tiny suggestion: there are some errors in the use of tenses which if you would correct could make the flow even better than it already is..

[OhSnapShley]

I greatly accept your suggestion. Pick should very well have been picked. If you see something else to change by all means please so let me know. Since the poem is in a past tense form. I am glad you enjoyed it.

"make you see what you seen back then,"
Here 'seen' should be 'saw'
"the things we use to do,"
Here 'use' should be 'used'
"the things you use to,"
Same here.
I hope you will see this as constructive.. Btw I really like your write up.. You are welcome

[OhSnapShley]

Constructive is what I need, thank you so much for taking the time out to show me those little errors, the poem still flows as I had hoped it would.

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Yes it does flow nicely.. It was a pleasure.. I'm always ready to help out where I can though not a good one myself...

[Dust That Drifts Throug..]

I like this one because the theme is right there: someone picking up the broken pieces of yourself and that person never leaving your side.

Indeed, we all need someone by our side to help us from time to time.
