For so long you've been my strength
The only sincere smile in a world of bitter cold
When you pick on me I cannot help but laugh
Discouraged and defeated a million times
I never felt as though I lost
You were still proud
Stepping out of the safety of oblivion
The feeling of an abandon beaten puppy crept in
Emotionally battered
Some days I wanted to give in
To rest in a bed made of cool earth
But you took my hand
You stood beside me
Not a leader
But a guide
I'm free of the shadows
Of the smothering worthless feeling
The sun still rises
It still sets too
Much of this is thanks to you
Brother
Your love is the greatest gift
The strongest bond
Many others walked out
But you?
You stepped closer
swallowed by waves of panic
You sat calmly with me
Repeating over and over
It wasn't your time
You weren't leaving me
This time is much different
Everything is so uncertain
Fear clings to my insides
Tears litter pale cheeks
With my faith at zero
I'll pray...
Because I love you
You've walked the streets of hell with me
Pulled me from the shadows
Instilled hope within a once empty soul
Truth be told
I'd give my life for you
You always tell me
“Keep your head up kid”
And so I will
I'll be your strength
As you've always been mine
I promise...

loved the poem i have some of mine also....



Stop loving you

Don't let the scilence
disturbe the peace
don't let the hunger
ruin your feast
don't let the sunshine
diminish the rain
don't let my joy
stop your pain
don't let the light
scare away the dark
don't let your brain
think for your heart
don't let the lies
dround the truth
don't let your hope
disolve the dispair
don't let let the hate
over power the love
don't let the danger
ruin the thrill
don't let the protests
stop the prayers
and don't let me
stop loving you
