"The Complete Me" There are parts of me no one knows Hidden places that I never show Sometimes the pain is too much to bear And my heart hurts too much to care Clouds of blue rain down on me So I can let these tears go If pillows and teddy bears could talk They'd surely say what they know Parts of my heart are missing I feel not quite complete Looking at the reflection in the mirror Asking who is this person I call me? I laugh and joke, smile everyday Because sometimes I can't let out what I really want to say My Angel went to heaven, and my world turned a stormy blue There are times when I no longer know what to do A past I am not sure of, with bits of my life there and here My heart slowly lets out a desperate tear This head is weary, and my heart torn and tattered From too many broken promises and dreams shattered THEN... Then you came into my life and the clouds went away Maybe only for a little while, perhaps for only a day But I am able to smile, and the pain begins to ease Feeling the weight lift off of me, oh the sweet release And I show myself to you and you did not laugh You held my hand instead And in a matter of a moment You became my one true best friend Life ever changing, moon goes around the sun I fell in love with you, and my life thus begun Teaching me how to live again, your love unlocked the chains And I can smile easier, even when in the pouring down rain Clouds of blue still rain on me And tears I still do cry But I found myself again You are the reason why Some things are meant to be Make a wish because they can come true All of mine did The moment I met and fell in love with you. Sometimes in order to find something We must lose it, so I lost me and I found you Looking into those beautiful blue eyes, what do I see? I see the part of me that was missing, and I see the complete me |

I like the hope in this one very much. It shows that you can get through anything, especially with a little help and support Pepper "A poem is the very image of life expressed in its eternal truth." Percy Bysshe Shelley |
