Been a long road

A Poem by Davis Blake

This is a poem dedicated to the memory of my first, true, and only love. Whom died several years ago when we were both foolish teenagers. She and I loved each other madly, but at that time we did drugs. She died of an overdose when she was 14 almost 15. I

Been a long road, been so many years,
Been putting miles between memories and
I'm always just getting by, fighting the tears that survive,
And you're always holding my hand, your memory in my heart.

Every memory of what I did, yeah i know you wouldn't agree,
but it's hard to believe, when I remember seeing you that day,
A broken angel, hell before my eyes.

With every sunrise and sunset,
With every tear down my face,
I keep moving on, another day is gone,
I keep searching for the answers to my past,
And the questions to come,
Every day's a struggle, but I know i can.

Been a long road, been so many years,
Keep putting miles between memories and
I'm always just getting by, fighting the tears that survive,
But I know I can,
Cause you keep holding my hand.
