Like An Angel

by Natalie   Jul 19, 2007


Feeling so alive,
I have never felt this good,
Like an angel who can not fly,
But would if she could.

Stuck here on Earth,
It is not so bad.
Why be anywhere else?
When you can have what you had?

Life is confusing.
I would not want it any other way.
This is how I strive to live.
I do it day to day.

You were what I wanted.
I never had the chance.
It does not matter now.
You were gone at first glance.

I will not fear the wind.
I will appreciate the rain.
Everyday is new,
And some will be full of pain.

What if you had me?
Where would we be?
It does not matter now.
You are not what I see.

It is not worth the tears.
It was never worth the lies.
Friendship comes and goes,
Family always ties.

I am happy with who I am.
I would not change a thing.
My life is expanding.
You were just another fling.

It did not feel right.
I never wanted to let go.
My time was wasting.
You were moving too slow.

I feel like an angel,
One with no halo.
I feel so inspired,
You were too shallow.

I never had doubt.
You always looked away.
I was not afraid to sacrifice.
You felt it was a price to pay.

Life is about love.
You love and you learn.
Now you are gone.
You had your turn.

When you grow up,
One day you will look back.
You will see what is gone.
You will realize what you lack.

I am happy to live tomorrow.
I would not trade a day.
I will get by alone.
Everything will be okay.

I feel like an Angel,
But I do not dress in white.
Maybe this would not have happened,
But you chose to fight.

The past is over.
Memories are left behind.
I do not want that anymore.
One day it will all unwind.

I has been too long.
Now I feel so alive.
I was lacking one thing.
It is not you that I strive.

Some people change,
But it will not affect me.
Where are you going?
Do you not want to see?

Believe in the future.
It awaits your arrival.
It is about living life.
It says so in the Bible.

I feel like an Angel,
Waking to see the new day.
I have no halo, I have no wings,
But I am still doing okay.

To feel so alive,
Is the best part of life?
Will you ever wake up,
To someone you will call your wife?

Who needs a thousand friends,
When one would always be there?
All that attention you receive,
It will never compare.

True friendship is honesty.
It is filled with understanding and love.
It is a scene on the beach,
With clear water and a white dove.

A friend is a comfort.
It is a hard place to reach.
Believe in yourself.
And practice what you preach.

I feel so relieved;
One less weight on my shoulder.
I was feeling tortured.
It could get no colder.

I will always be in this life.
I will stand for what I believe.
You were never helping me.
You were growing to be my biggest pet-peeve.

The actions I portrayed,
The words that I spoke,
I will not lie now,
They were never a joke.

What I did was stupid.
What you did was wrong.
The feelings that I had,
Were dragging on too long.

Throughout the entire time,
I said I would never hurt you.
We could have been great,
If only you could have grew.

I feel like an Angel,
Just fallen from the sky.
This time is in my past.
I do not have to hear another lie.

Your words faded to nothing.
Over the course of time,
Your actions were deceiving.
It began to feel like a crime.

I found my way out.
You helped me through.
I bet you did not know.
Did you have a clue?

It happened so fast.
But it felt so right.
It was like an open door,
Of a new shining light.

I learned what I did.
I overcame my fear.
After two years,
I would never shed another tear.

Now I feel so free.
Nothing is holding me back.
You were what I wanted.
Now you are nothing that I lack.

It could have been different,
But it did not work out.
I will do nothing but smile,
And continue living without doubt.

I am living on the edge.
I feel so amused.
I was living in hell.
I felt battered and bruised.

My heart was breaking.
The numbing was endless.
Why was is it so easy,
For you to be so careless?

I feel like an Angel,
Happy to be alive and free.
I feel so true to myself.
I am almost sad that you will not see.

This is more of an "inspiring" poem about an ex that was living with me, and just recently moved out. He's hurt me numerous times, and I have no one to blame but myself for taking him back each and everytime. What he did just recently will never be forgiven. Anger beats jealousy. I can honestly say his actions have done nothing but make me stronger as a person. I don't need that in my life, and while all along I knew I deserved better, I kept hoping for more. I don't need that in my life, and something better will one day be found.
