Title: All I want To Do Is Believe

 

 

 

 

I want to believe the words that you say are true,

That everything will be ok if I just put my trust in you.

Every part of me knows that I am in love,

It is you that I keep thinking of…

How do I get back to that special place where I felt safe?

From reality I would escape…

In cloud nine is where I would be,

The rest of the world could not find me.

Nothing else mattered because I was in captivation;

Little did I know my world would be taken by altercation.

To have reality hit me and take me to an all too familiar, unwanted, horrible place,

That from my past I was trying to escape.

Now you are telling me to believe in that place that I was torn from

This pain hurts so bad it is hard to overcome

What if I get torn away and fall into that horrible place again?

It takes a lot of strength and time for a heart to mend.

So I’ll close my eyes and take a deep breath…

And start all over with no regret.

This healing may take time,

But it is that special place that I will keep in mind.

All I want to do is believe,

That we belong together…

You and me…

I know with each day that passes we grow stronger,

And we both are becoming better people because of one another.

You seem to be the missing piece to my intricate soul

I’m so thankful that you are still here

And that’s all I need to know

I think this poem is very well penned, full of heartfelt love and longing. Reality is sometimes hard to take, yet some how we always manage to survive that which we believe is impossible to do. I wish you all the best. PW
