Mean SomethingA Poem by Haley Lynn ThomasEvery night I pray...that one day I'll mean something to you again...I want you to have these I want you to read them every day To know the words so well You can recite them in your sleep
I want you to have these They’re all you have left of me They’ll serve as your memories And haunt you in your dreams
I want you to have these Because I can’t look at them anymore Every time I do I imagine your face And another little piece of me breaks
I want you to have these Because you deserve to know The suffering I’ve endured for you About the long nights I waited for you
I want you to have these So you can know how I held my breath How I fell asleep praying to God For you to find your way home to me
I want you to have these Because even though it’s unlikely Deep down there’s still a chance That one day I’ll mean something to you again © 2014 Haley Lynn Thomas |
