[hometext] => This is about the 3 people that have probably had more of an influence on my life and the person I am today than anyone else in the world, and how each of them contributed to what this poem is about: my ex best friend Sam and how losing her affected me; my best friend and kindred spirit Emily and how finding her affected me; and Dean, the love of my life, and how finding him set me free.
[bodytext] => A broken girl
Is what she left of me Down on the floor With the something you saw in me I lost myself And left it all behind Till you gave me Something I never thought I'd find I learned to stand up on my own But all the hurt inside me took a hold I put up these defensive walls To guard my heart against the bitter cold I took a look in the mirror Realized I'm not who I wanted to be I wanted that little girl back 'Cause this girl doesn't cry - that can't be me! This broken girl Found a kindred spirit I saw myself In every tear and knew it fit I found myself Even when it hit me Of what I did And of just how bad she hurt me I locked myself away inside Hiding and crying within my own head One tiny light among the dark And I felt her in every tear I shed So I set out to find the key That special someone who would set me free But I just couldn't seem to fit Right in my own skin with anybody A broken heart Is what was left of me Down on my luck So I took what you offered me You loved this girl But I didn't see how Then I fell too And was amazed at what I found Love echoed in my ears so loud I knew I finally had something real When I stepped back to take a look I realized with you I could just be me And no longer did I feel lost 'Cause beautiful you, you love me for me Now because of you I feel whole That little girl is free and this is me [comments] => 3 [counter] => 283 [topic] => 21 [informant] => MoonlitAngel [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
