one person can change the world

by Laura   Oct 5, 2003


I've looked at the stars in the sky
and I've laid in the grass on the ground
I've seen your face without using my eyes
and I've understood you without hearing a sound
I've cried an endless river of tears
and I've swam in an ocean of sorrow
but never have I turned around
Refusing to look for tomorrow
I've looked at the sun with such pride
and I've danced in the rain with a smile
I've cradled a bird with two broken wings
and I've watched someone handicap run a mile
I've looked in pure water that didn't reflect my face
and I've soared in the sky as high as a hawk
I've circled the earth many times
and I've heard the different ways that people talk
I've done all these things a million times
and I've seen the world too much, yes it's true
but now I can't be as happy as I once was before
because you see Cierra...I've lost you.

If anyone would like to use this poem, please ask, and yes..you may change the name, for Cierra was a true best friend who moved away, leaving me behind broken hearted.
