Everyday Poem by Cheryl Adair

everyday i wake up
and i face the hurt
all over again

everyday i must find
a way to deal with
what i have done

everyday of my life
till the end of my life
i will remember you
and i will pray for you

everyday you gave me love
and i gave you back betrayal
now nothing can ever fill up
the spaces you left behind

everyday i will miss you
and wish i could see you
but i hurt you once too often
and now i don't deserve you

everyday i hope you remember
that i wasn't always like this
and i hope you can forgive me
for what my insecurities left you with

i pray for God to protect you
and teach you to trust again
i pray you find Love and Hope
and someone to be there for you

everyday of your life.
