The Stairway of Broken Hearts

by wellthoughtoutwords   Jul 21, 2005


I stand at the top step with him.
Behind me is the stairway of broken hearts.
I broke all those heart's to get to him.
He was the one I'd wanted all along.
And I'd finally gotten him.
But he had a stairway as well...
and I was just one more step.
I couldn't believe what was happening.
Before I knew it, he had pushed me...
Pushed me back down my stairway.
As I fell I hoped one of those broken hearts would reach out and save me.
Instead they cut me and bruised me and let me keep falling.
I tumbled and fell all the way down.
At the last step, when I had no more hope...
You caught my hand and stopped my fall.
You brought me into your arms and said,
"I've been here since the beginning. I was your very first step. I haven't forgotten about you. I told you I'd always love you and I'd always be here. I still mean it."
I began to cry as you held me there.
"I'm so sorry...I can't believe I left you. I guess all this time...deep down, you've been the only one I ever really loved..."

Yeah that was really lame but whatever. I wrote it at like 11 at night. so vote and comment please...
