On You Poem by Smoky Hoss

On You

Rating: 5.0


If I needed to
Could I count on you-
If it all looked like the end
Would you be my friend-
If they were coming to take me away
Would you stand up for me with strong words to say-

It's a long road home
When you feel like you're travelling alone-
There's a darkness across the heart
When the fire departs-
Days turn to night
As the sun goes out of sight-
And that ole fickle moon
Sets far too soon-
All that's left is a mangled concern
Wondering if any will ever return-

One last old soul
To truly know, before I go-
One who really shares
And unconditionally cares-
Just one true love
Flying free like the beauty of a dove-

If I needed to...
Could I honestly count, on only you?

Really like this, it brings a lot of memories back, of when i was in a real dark place, a place where I don't want to go to again. My poems justice part 1 and 2, and Mental Hospital, are that place. This is a great poem. I love it.
