Feeling Alive Poem by Ivette Maduro

So desperately, wanting it to end
Cutting deep, just to pretend
That everything is alright...
Just Fine.
When really all the fears
Hit the heart like jagged spears
Tears like rain
Heart full of pain
Finally found something.
Something to live for.
Someone to love.
Something special.
You kept me alive.

When i wanted to end
You were my best friend
As you are today
In every possible way.
I got a spark
From your very heart,
That kept me going.
Just know that...
I LOVE YOU! ! !
You gave me something.
Something to live for.
Someone to love.
Something special.
You kept me alive.
