If I were you I&#039;d promise to live life for all it&#039;s worth, take all you&#039;ve been given and leave your mark upon this Earth. Trust your heart to show you everything you need...and if you were you, I&#039;d fall in love with me. -unknown<br /> <br /> <br /> fear not, for I am with you;<br /> <br /> <br /> be not dismayed, for I am your God;<br /> <br /> I will strengthen you, I will help you,<br /> <br /> <br /> I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.<br /> (Isaiah 41:10 ESV)


I shed a tear when I think of all you’ll miss,
my first love, even my first kiss,
the first time I get a broken heart

I know I wasn’t the best that I should have been,
I didn’t tell you all that I was feeling,
well it’s a little late now
But you should know

That I still cry, sometimes when i think of you,
and i don’t know why, that i wont let no one see,
exactly how much pain its causing me,
and i don’t know, if what I’m doing is exactly moving on,
i don’t know why, why i have to be so strong

I sat right there with you and held your hand,
I told you we would see each other again,
it wasn’t forever good buy

You were half way gone when I confessed to you,
all my wrongs and how I loved you
I woke up and you had left that night
But you should know

That I still cry, sometimes when i think of you,
and i don’t know why, that i wont let no one see,
exactly how much pain its causing me,
and i don’t know, if what I’m doing is exactly moving on,
i don’t know why, why i have to be so strong

I don’t think you even heard me
And now here I am down on my knees,
crying ‘cause I know your not coming back
So here I pry, to let you know

That I still cry, sometimes when i think of you,
and i don’t know why, that i wont let no one see,
exactly how much pain its causing me,
and i don’t know, if what I’m doing is exactly moving on,
I don’t know why, why i have to be so strong

I wrote this song in dedication to my Grandmother who recently past away...I miss her very much, more then I let anyone know, so i wrote this song to express that.

I really love your poem, So Strong. Rhyming isen't completely on-key but the basis is very touching. Simply stunning.
