BECAUSE OF YOU

Because Of You

Because of you I wasn’t afraid

          Because of you I could dance           

Because of you I never strayed

Because of you I took a chance

Because of you I felt complete

Because of you I smiled more

Because of you my life was sweet

Because of you I learned to draw

Then you left and I let things slide, fear took over and I began to hide. The music played but I couldn’t connect my feet and head, strangers woke up in my bed. I took no risks, I felt so scared. To take a chance I never dared. I thought that there was something missing. My resting face was grimacing. Life became an arduous chore. I couldn’t even be bothered to draw.

Because of you I’m all alone

Because of you my life is shit

Because of you all I do is moan

Because of you I want to quit

Because of you I don’t go out

Because of you I cry at home

Because of you I want to shout

Because of you I wrote this poem
