A beacon of light shone in my heart
From a place that has been dark and cold
My prayers have been answered
As were my dreams that were far too bold
The one I’ve hoped for
That I wished would be mine
Is finally within my grasp
After so many seconds in time
To hold me in his arms
And kiss me on my cheek
The one thing I’ve always wanted
Has finally managed to speak
He’ll kiss me again and again
And never get bored
But when I bring the future up
He is completely torn
He starts to push away
And release the arms that hold me
Turning his head away
As he tries not to see
The tears he brings
Through his atrocious ways
As he uses me all the time
Then simply throws me away
He barely sees
What pain he’s caused
Down deep inside me
As I put my emotions on pause
I can’t help but cry
When no one is around
He doesn’t even know me
When I don’t make a sound
He doesn’t watn me forever
Even though he needs me
He may not realize it yet
But no longer is he happy
He doesn’t see what she had done
How she tore his world apart
And stepped on all the little pieces
Without a thought for his heart
He’s changed from the boy he was
Now a man, he sees shorter
Only his desires are considered
And he has much to offer
Only sometimes it won’t be given
Nothing more or less, as it will always be
I will have to live with my splintered hopes
And continue to be miserably happy
