These words are mine, and mine alone. They belong solely to me. I'd love to hear what you think, tell me they're wonderful, they suck, they touched you, they made you cry. Just tell me redsasquatch2@hotmail.com
All my dreams had faded away
Only my life chose to keep me
My eyes were closed I'd given up
Never look back and no, never stop
Day to day I carved a lonesome path
Superficial so I would not stray
There were friends who came and went
No one getting close to break my defense
I opened my door, saw you standing there
Thought you're just like the rest, have to protect
Out came your words, timid and shy
No longer had I anything needing to defend
Life is not over I began to see
At least one other good person around
I wasn't scared, I wasn't frightened
Even though my life was forever changing
You showed me the way through your kind words
Taking away the ones which I'd found delight
Not a judgment or run did you make
Just standing still a hand extending in friendship
