[This is for my boyfriend, who everyday makes me want to stick around just to see if things can possibly get any better]

Close your eyes, and for once don't fight the coming sleep;
The night's too dark for soul searching, and thoughts run much too deep.
Don't wonder if the moonlight shining next to you will stay-
You're too far gone to fight it, too tired to run away.
Lay any doubts to rest, put all worries aside.
There's a promise of tomorrow for every time you've cried.
Stop digging up the past, don't dwell on where you've been.
You've made it through the darkness, now you'll never run again.
Rest easy now tonight in the arms that once were cursed.
This dream will never leave you - you'll have to leave it first.

Well I think this is touching, not only the poem but the footnote as well.  I don't know you so I can't say it's directed to me though.     Nonetheless, a great job.
I'm bumping this back to page one.  So I guess you have something to thank me for after all?

Concieted??  Impossible!  That would be a fault!

this is a good poem. Just keep writing them alright, cuz I wanna read them.

I wish people would stop telling me that I can do anything I want to.  I never thought that I couldn't.

Hey guys-
thanks so much for the honest and sincere comments, I really appreciate it.
One thing I want to clear up...in the footnote when i said I stick around to see if things can possibly get better, I didn't mean that they are bad...I meant that things are soooo amazingly wonderful now that I can't wait to see if it is possible to be any happier than I already am...it was supposed to be a positive thing   It's cool that you guys interpreted it ur own way though.
Bye for now - love u all

This is beautiful, Kandi.  It's a wonderful tribute.  Whoever you wrote it for I hope feels very lucky that he has you.  This is a very nicely written poem.. one to be proud of.
