I Had it All

I have it all:

work that provides,

a home I can call my own,

friends and family who love me.


I had it all:

a love that promised I’d never be alone,

the comfort of coming home to someone,

the happiness of lying down in their warmth,

knowing I had someone to lean on,

my troubles forgotten,

believing I was okay.


Now I feel so alone.

The beautiful love is gone,

the sadness settling in,

dark shadows dawning,

falling across my broken thoughts.


I fall apart,

so alone,

not wanting anyone

to be left all alone.


I want to go back home,

back to you and me,

away from the pain of it all,

to fall back into you

and hear you say it will be okay,

the darkness will go away,

you are not alone anymore.
