When i look at her i am reminded solely of my past,
She makes yesterday feel like so long ago.
She looks at me and wonders;
Where did all the years go?
She asks when I found my wings and learnt to fly.
She is confused seeing my smile;
Knowing I've had so many years of hurt.
For I was what she loved but she couldn't make my world spin.
I didn't get lost in all the chaos;
For what I thought was the end is a new beginning.
I look to you and what I see is my future,
Today goes so quickly just because I'm having fun.
You helped me find my wings and stretched them across my back.
You brought my fears close so I could face them;
You gave me that first push.
You breathed life back into my collapsed lungs,
I've never felt air like it.
You are the fountain that blesses my skin;
Washing all my worries away.
We all have reasons to be here and you taught me that;
I learnt from you to introduce myself not reduce myself.
You can't start a new chapter in your life if you keep
REWRITING AND REREADING THE OLD ONE.

- Comment from author about the poem: There have been times where i have felt the need to give up. Not start again but just give up. It has been the same way i have thought for ten years. I have never knew anything else. That's why all my relationships failed. I tried giving my everything but it always got torn away. The people i were with, they didn't match me or benefit me nor my health. This poem is about my new girlfriend whom i've been with since last October. She literally makes me feel like no one else ever has. I have been in love before and i tell you it was nothing like this. I try to write about how she makes me feel but sometimes the right words just will not come. I think i might need to read a couple of dictionaries and thesaurus' to help locate the words, but what i feel inside, I don't feel there could be words to explain. So here is a poem, i like to be very metaphorical so i took a basic 'chapter' and relate her to a new beginning in my life, my own book. I hope you like it :)
