Because of Him

Contributed by fastpitchqt on Wednesday, 14th December 2005 @ 09:59:14 PM in AEST
Topic: LovePoetry

Because of him I closed my heart
I vowed I would never again let anyone in
Because of him I believed that men couldnt be trusted
That my dad is the only guy I can rely on
Because of him I became defensive
I try so hard to keep guys from getting close
Because of him I lost my happiness

But things have began to change
My smile has been recovered
My life once again has meaning
My days are happy like before
My trust is still weak, but slowly is building

Because of you I can now show the world my smile
Instead of hiding it behind a mask of tears
Because of you I feel beautiful inside and out
Rather than ugly and insecure
Because of you I feel as though someone wants me
Rather than being there to be there
Because of you I now dont need to fake happiness
You have brought it back into my life
Because of you I no longer dream of how things wouldve been
Instad, I think of how things could be by having you with me

As one door closes, one always opens
Even though my heart breaks, it will always mend
Because of the pain he caused me
Because of the tears that I cried
Im glad it all happened
Because it gave me back my life, my happiness
But most importantly, it brought me to you!

Yes, as one door closes another opens. Everything happens for a reason and life is a journey. This poem tells the story of that journey very well. My favourite stanza is the last one as it sums up the meaning of the poem perfectly. Excellent!
