Pushed Away {poem}

 My heart aches
My mind races
My heart breaks
My mind faces
The trouble ahead

I sit in the dark
Looking out at the light
Wishing for just one spark
Of something bright

I thought you were the one
To help me out of this pit
But when you were done
You just weren’t it

You pushed me deeper
Into my grave
Closer to the reaper
I can never be saved

I just sink
Into the dark
Pushed over the brink
Left with a permanent mark

I hit the end
I can only look to the sky
Just wishing for someone to send
A hero by

I see a faint light
A glimpse that I might go on
It grows bright
And I hear a glorious song

I smile
And begin to dream
And all the while
Everything was not what it seemed

You pushed me away
And I don’t care
I’m alive and here to stay
And at the sky I stare

At the light above
I see my new life
And a glorious dove
I turn around and see my strife

I leave you behind
I wave goodbye to you
I’m on my way to find
A life that is true

I turn back around
And walk towards the light
I walk on the beautiful new ground
And smile bright

I begin a new phase
I can’t wait for it to start
I feel the sun’s rays
Heating up my heart

As the ice melts away
I’m a whole new me
A brand new day
I’m finally free

I enjoy it all
I live as I should
I have no burdens to haul
And all was good

But I turned back to you
Bringing you the light
I walked straight through
The darkness and night

I looked in your eyes
And I saw the pain
I saw your disguise
I saw every last chain

You were a prisoner of this place
Stuck here forever
I looked at your face
I began to sever

All the chains
And all the locks
Till nothing remains
But piles of rocks

I free you of
This depressing hole
I show you love
And help restore your soul

I watch a small tear
Run down your face
Washing away all the fear
Putting you in a whole new place

I start to cry
With joy for you
As I stand by
And watch you become new

I leave you be
To enjoy your new heart
You smiled one last time at me
And it was like a work of art

You whisper in my ear
"I hope our paths soon will meet."
As you say this I feel a tear
As we just stand there in the street

I hug you and tell you
"We will be together again before long,
Every word I have said is true,
You just need to be strong."

Looking back once more
We go different ways
Only wishing for
The quick passing of the days

We live our lives
Through gain and loss
But then the fateful day arrives
When our paths do cross…

We smile then cry
Then embrace one another
And walk under the night sky
And around us no others

We stop and sit
Underneath the full moon
And realize our lives just fit
And didn’t think it was to soon

We live together till the end
With neverending love and joy
Our connection never to bend
And all this from that evil boy

All this joy
Came from all that hate
That one boy
Was released from his fate

When they both started out
They were in a dark pit
And full of doubt
They were trapped in it

But one little light
Was all she got
To fight her fight
And no longer be caught

He was trapped by chains
A part of the pit
And she was the one to stop his pains
And break him out of it
