Love Always


Roses are red,

Volets are blue,

The feeling I share,

are harsh but true.

 

My heart was shattered,

For a little while,

Anger filled the hole inside,

But stole the gleam from my smile.

 

Hours to days, days to months,

Months to years,

I let you go,

 Despite all the tears.

 

You were the part of my life long forgotten,

Someone I thought I didn't need,

Then the unexpected happened,

And my heart, once again, began to bleed.

 

When you heard how he'd hurt me,

You made sure I was alright and took me into your arms,

A place I had missed,

Where I felt safe from all harm.

 

You could have turned your back on me,

Like I had done to you for so long,

Insead, you held me, our eyes filled with tears

And all the time that had passed was gone.

 

The love that I had bottled for so long,

Has chiseled through the ice that froze a piece of my heart,

Ever and aways I'll be your baby,

And never again will we be torn apart.

 

Love always, your daughter.
