I am lost forever in your eyes.

They see through all the walls Iv'e built to keep people out.

To keep them from seeing the real me.

But not you.

 

You are immune to my walls.

You are the one that pulls me from my unending fall.

I am like dead pink roses no more.

 

 

Youv'e changed me.

You make me happy and you have brought me back to life again.

I now have rosebuds sprouting out again after years of depression and death.

Now, in the spring, I will bloom brightly and beautifully.

 

You are my hero.

You are mine.

And I love you.

I wrote this in a time when i was happy. But that time has passed and now all i feel is anger and sorrow. Men lie, they cheat, and make you feel loved only when they want something from you. Don't trust them.
