My heart was healing and my head was clearing.
My first love i was forgetting.
I told myself again and agian, dont trust someone until they hold your hand.
But my head didnt listen and the hand wasnt there.
So again i trusted someone who left me standing here, with an empty hand.
I thought i would never do this again.
I just dont understand.
Why me?
I dont understand why my hands are always left empty.

Renee  

Trust is a hard thing to keep and to earn. We, as humans, tend to break them more than we keep them.
Your use of "hands" is a symbol of trust, and you kept that theme throughout. It was very appropriate in this case, and it really brought in more than just "hands". It brought in expression.
*Thinks*

"I dont understand why my hands are always left empty."

We don't understand a lot of things, mainly because we're a bunch of brainless monkies. *laugh* But really, I don't think you should try to understand. Just see it as a part of life, and everything will seem less confusing. Although, just don't let these experiences keep you from being who you are, because what you want is not only someone you can trust, but also someone who loves the true you.  

Best of luck!

You're always going to want to understand why. The question of why will rest on your lips until your dying day. Whether it's love, hate, loss, success, friendship, failure... anything. And the best way to find what you're looking for? Listen to yourself. Seriously. Hush your mind and your mouth and listen... let the answers roll over you like a flood. When you learn to listen, you will learn to understand. However, until that day comes.. don't let it trouble you so. Keep your head up and an open mind, for you never know what you may find.

Welcome to Passions.. you started out wonderfully. I hope to see your art here again.



The only thing that I fear is to die quietly.

I liked this poem, it seemed very...deliberate(I don't really know what that means so don't ask me )

A Nice way to start your hopefully long stay here.
