Better than this

Better than this

A Poem by butterfly

Keep the faith when life is hard
I still fall in love with the human race
Its all God made
Yet He granted free will
I guess it was my own will to break my own heart
No one is to blame
Should have known all this is lame
Everyone warned me so
Now here I am embracing the truth so ugly and cold
Yet its the real that brings powers to heal
I closed the chapter
I let go and found a new happily ever after
He still wanted my body but thats it
He brought me my peppermint toads and it lifts my spirit
I deserve it all
I will find it all
Some Mr. Right brave enough to love me
Not only will he wake my sleeping love
He will love me back in the light
So I go back to my dark room in this eternal night
i go back to sleep
I will wait for true love's kiss
As I dream of a life better than this
Only the faith keeps this beating heart
I still fall in love with the human race
Everything beautiful is God made
So the old chapter fades
Happily ever after is replaced
I can walk away on my own
I know now his arms was never my home
Just a temporary shelter from the cold
I will always love you
But its time to let go
As I enter my dark room in this eternal night
I fall back to sleep
I will wait for true love's kiss
His was not the one for then he would never choose to be gone
I dream on as I await the new life better than this...

I did enjoy the hope in the below lines.
"i go back to sleep
I will wait for true love's kiss
As I dream of a life better than this
Only the faith keeps this beating heart
I still fall in love with the human race"
The above lines, we must do. If we fall down, we must get up and we must go forward. Thank you Butterfly for sharing the amazing poetry.
