Who's Gonna Drive Me Home

I just barely made it here
And I'm hardly holding on
That day I lived my biggest fear
 When I found out you're gone

Force fed a pill I'd never swallow
With words I just can't hear
Though factual, don't seem to follow
And it's almost been a year

It's sort of like we've been fighting
Still, just like we were that night
Now alone, I think about you, writing 
And there's no fixing this in sight 

It feels like I'm ever waiting 
For you to ring my phone
That feeling now is never fading 
Though you won't be coming home

It had always been your opinion
That there's nothing after this
Will we have no future union?
No forever state of bliss?

Well, don't care if I have a false hope
Or an unrealistic dream 
Count on it so that I'll cope
And don't just fuckin scream

If our time's only an iota
Just a fraction of heartbeat
I'll take it, just wanna hold ya
So again I'll feel complete 

If I find that you are absent 
When time I reach my end
No one can say I haven't
Lived to unite with my best friend.

Being Me

I think having faith in a belief is important. Even if that belief is purely one of knowing that lovers, friends, pets and family will one day be reunited. Hope is hope. It's all we have at times so I dont think any hope is false. Hope is what keeps us going sometimes. A fabulous write, Ashley x

Great poem Ashley with the usage of the basic A B A B standards... it's something that I would also kind of choose to write about. So poems like that always hit me the hardest as it something many people might feel including me.

Keep up the good work

Sincere
