You Were There Poem by Tina P..

each time you were there
even though i couldn't see you
you told me what to do
but sometimes i chose to ignore you

when i tried something new
that could kill me for good
i faught you hard and still you saved me
just because you could

when i said words
that cut them so deep inside
when i hurt myself so bad
because he stole my pride

when they fought so cruelly
when i had to watch them in pain
when there was nothing but hate
when i almost went insane

each time you were there
even though i couldn't see you
you told me what to do
but sometimes i chose to ignore you

Because of you, i am alive
i am breathing in each wonderful breath of air
because of you i am beautifully me
your love you share
