Deja Vu



What ever happened to you and me,
Are you blind its not hard to see.
That you and I are now lost,
To be your friend I payed the cost,
Of my heart my soul and mind,
Although my feelings were close behind.
I felt the same way I did back then,
When I was more than just your friend.
Or at least thats what I thought,
Were your words lies that I bought.
I remember the day you said your were falling,
Not to long after you stop calling.
You filled my life with pain,
Still I don't know who's the one to blame.
What is now has come to an end,
I don't thin I can even call you friend.
If I did I would be lying to myself or so I think,
Can you prove me wrong and bring back the link.
The tie that bonded us together,
The shelter against harsh weather.
Do you want to remain in my life,
Or leave me here with this pain and this strife.
For now it's over but you are forgiven,
I won't let the thought of you keep me from livin'
The hope for a future is all up to you,
Because I refuse to let this become another deja vu.

I've been writing since I was about 15 years old. Most of my work is about love and it's true opposite, fear. Fear the leads to pain. Also, i enjoy writing about the good in life, people, and nature. more…
