In an upside-down garden

0 posted 2001-04-10 08:26 AM


You taught me how to love,
you taught me how to smile,
you taught me how to live,
atleast for a little while.

You taught me you're the one,
you taught me heart and soul,
you taught me to love,
everyone, young and old.

You taught me how to cry,
you taught me how to care,
you taught me how to know,
that you would always be there.

You're still there beside me,
but it's no longer what it was,
and somehow you can't see,
why, how and because.

You taught me how to love you,
but then you let me go,
and I will go on loving you forever,
this you'll always know.

Till you come back to me,
and realize that I'm here,
I was there all along,
and you taught me how to care.

I wish people would stop telling me that I can do anything I want to.  I never thought that I couldn't.
Life's tough, get a helmet.
