I'd give anything, everything <br />To have something better than this <br />Look there, do you see it <br />Something hidden beyond the horizon <br />And I'll watch it in the rain pouring down <br />Turn into fog, just a mystery <br />He looks for a glance out the window <br />Sees me sitting there, watching, in the rain <br />I'd give anything, everything <br />To have something better than this <br />I see a memory, my memory <br />When I said, look there <br />But he didn't see it, never will see it <br />Something's there, hidden beyond the horizon <br />He turns, looks out the window <br />Sees me kissing my dreams in the rain <br />Turns away quickly with a bitter smile <br />Thinks I should be kissing him <br />But I'd give anything, everything <br />To have something better than this <br />That doesn't turn his back on my dreams <br />And I remember crying <br />Crying in the rain, talking to myself <br />I want a life better than this <br />So I fix my eyes on the horizon <br />There's something there, beyond the horizon <br />I'll quietly watch it <br />In the rain pouring down <br />Turn into fog, just a mystery <br />Now I have just a memory of that boy <br />He turned away from me for always with a bitter smile <br />But I know I don't feel that way <br />Anymore <br />Now I have something to do with my life <br />Something better than that <br />Because I fixed my eyes <br />On that something, beyond the horizon <br />That time when I wanted something <br />Something better than this <br />And I fulfilled my dreams<br /><br />Maya Hanson (mye3 poet)<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/better-than-this/
