Clean Slate

November 16, 2013

You started off a clean slate,

No clouds drifted through your head,

But time has changed us,

Slowly molding us with every punch it gave.

 

Your fight started early,

Seeing what you saw,

Feeling what you felt,

And going throught what you did,

And yet no one to talk your problems away to,

And when you did,

You recieved stress filled backlashes.

That's where your look for help stopped,

You've closed your doors on all.

 

But you went on,

I was too young to understand,

Too stupid to do anything,

Then again,

Moving day,

New guy,

New place,

Away from us,

Then seperation occured,

I longed to see your face again,

And when I did you had changed,

And with that change came all of it,

It was like meeting another person,

A depressed teen...lost in his own dark shadows,

I don't know how to pull you out,

Save you,

I can't be too late,

Please come back to me as you,

Your old clean slate you.
