Standing Alone

by claire   Jun 4, 2008


You were my floor
I had an imaginary carpet
You melted away
I let the carpet fool me
You're still here, but not you
I'm suspended in space
Wondering what's holding me up
(I can see now
It was never you)

I'm wondering where I am, exactly
Floating, I think
Buoyed by my life
My endeavors, my family, my faith, my dreams
Everything you wanted to take away from me

Don't resent me
You always said hatred took too much effort.
I pity you, and hope for you, even believe in you;
As long as I don't have to be you
I'm happy
