You Can't Crush My Dreams

by Cindy   Jun 10, 2009


You can forget I live
Leave me sitting alone
Push me aside
Like I've been disowned

You can break my heart
Ignore that I'm here
Cause me more suffering
Your time one day nears

Leaving me alone
You Play on my fears
Each hurtful word stings
Whispered, only I hear

I look out my window
The sun it still shines
Birds are still singing
When I open the blinds

You can't take my heart
My love for you is real
I lived these moments
Those you can't steal

You can't take my will
Or silence my screams
These things are my choice
You won't crush my dreams

Just be there beside me
Keep holding my hand
Don't turn away
I need you to stand

I won't ask for much
Or get in your way
Just need you with me
Till my final day

    Cindy,
    This is such a sad write. I have told you many times before to never let anyone crush your dreams. I understand the pain and know that this write comes from the very heart of the pain when you feel like everyone around you has left you alone. Remember you are never alone.
    Love you,
    Kay

    This is emotional. And this is very emotional.
    One can feel your words. I don't have much to say as I know from where it came. Only thing I would like to say that if I look at it mere poetic point of view even then I find it a very well written poem. Lovely flow and words from the heart. Well done, Cindy... take care!
