Hope 'N' Arms Poem by Mark Hopwood

I've been able to see myself
Since you went away
For a while my smiles where hidden with tears
But i feel good inside today.

I've found that love is a minefield
Yes i've learned my lesson
One wrong step and you get blown to pieces
And the toxic secrets are anyones guessin.

Its not what you see in the mirror
I know this now you've gone away
It's what you feel inside that counts
And since you went I feel ok
And its a sunny day
Or at least its looking that way.
