Sometimes when I write, the outcome isn't always what I expect....


Perfect For Me...



I wanted to write the perfect words
The ones that would bring you back
To make you love me, the way you did
But as I wrote, I remembered the pain

The harshness of your words
The betrayal of my trust
The way you let us die
Then, I lost the will to try

As I wrote, I found, to my surprise
Some things are lost for a reason
Though there are times I miss you
All I really need, is to regain myself

The girl that trusted
The mother that believed
The woman that loved
Then I saw, this was for her......

To write perfect words, that's the dream, that's what keeps us writing.

This is really beautifully done, the way the form changes with the focus of the words. I love it!
