Paul

You are not just my friend,
Not just my lover,
You are not just who I talk to,
You are not like any other,

You care about people,
You think about their every need,
You think about what makes them happy,
You work hard to succeed,

In maintaining a good friendship,
Through the good times and the bad,
To be a shoulder for your friends to cry on,
When they feel confused and sad,

I always feel better,
Whenever you are there,
Whenever I feel troubled,
It is with you that I share,

The depressing stories,
The horrible dreams,
The stressful days,
When nothing is at it seems,

Whenever  I may need guidance,
Advice on what to do,
What the best option would be, to move forward,
And I value such opinions from you,


You are not just my boyfriend,
But more than a friend to me,
You are my guardian angel,
You bring out the best in me.

Explanation:


This was written when I was with my ex boyfriend, as the poem says I felt he was more than a friend, and more than a boyfriend, we are still friends and he's still there to offer advice to me. Thank you for being there Paul and I hope you know I truly appreciate it.

The new me

I feel like I'm slowly losing,
Myself and what I believe,
Like my views and opinions are changing,
Even the way in which I perceive,

Like everything was just an imitation,
Of the way I wanted things to be,
Not the reality in which,
Things felt clearer to me,

I'm slowly falling down a hole,
Not knowing when I'll land,
Not knowing when I'm going to come to a halt,
Why this is I don't understand,

I would like to stall the inevitable,
The never-ending drop,
The hole I'll never stop falling down,
This feeling that will never stop,

I am alone on this journey,
The destination is unknown,
All I know is that when I get to the bottom of this hole,
I'll still end up on my own.

Explanation:


I wrote this shortly after splitting up with my ex-boyfriend, I knew my life was changing but I didn't know how, or where it was going to lead too. I wrote this so that I could accept that fact that I was frightened of these changes I didn't want anything to change. I'm writing this explanation as I know it's confusing and as my friend said before it sounded desperate but it wasn't meant to, so I figured to save anymore confusion about the meaning of this poem - impressions of it - it deserved an explanation.
