Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened(:


Your smile gives me faith,
Your voice gives me hope,
Your arms give me love.

Bring me back to life.
Help me to reality.
Because right now I'm gone,
Far away,
Lost in a swirl
Of crimson darkness.

Give me something, anything
To make me feel
The way I'm supposed to.
Having you gives me strength
To go on.

Put on an act for the world.
Let's see just how big my
Fake smile can glow.
Or- in my expressionless bliss,
No acting required.

This uses up all energy.
Left a lifeless mass.
Not worthy of living.
Not really willing, either.

Is there a way out
Of the black hole I call home?
Yes- you save me,
In ways I least expect.
Little things that may
Seem unimportant
Are the world
To me.

So keep it up.
Do what you do.
And maybe you'll figure out
That I live because of you.
