But...Im Here... Poem by Dani Miller

You say you feel lonely
But baby I'm here...
You say you're an outcast
But baby I'm here...

We always agreed
To stick with each other.
Through everything and
Though thick and thin.
We always hated
The way we were
And we swore to never
Go back there again.

I have not gone back
Because I knew you were with me.
And because I had faith that
I wouldnt drown in the sea.

The sea of Disorientation and Confusion.
The sea where happiness is only an illusion.

You say you're lonely
But baby I'm here...
You say you're an outcast
But baby I'm here...

I thought we would be okay
Though all of this.
I thought that you
Still tried to believe.
And yet when my imagination
Is sparked once again,
I look at my surroundings
But you aren't next to me...

I know that distance hurts,
It hurts me but what about you?
You seem even more distant because
Of what you have put me through.

I'm not trying to make you sound
Like this horrible mean person.
Because you really aren't to me.
I love you, though my condition seems to worsen.

You say you're lonely
But baby I'm here...
You say you're an outcast
But baby I'm here...
