You say you feel lonely <br />But baby I'm here... <br />You say you're an outcast <br />But baby I'm here... <br /> <br />We always agreed <br />To stick with each other. <br />Through everything and <br />Though thick and thin. <br />We always hated <br />The way we were <br />And we swore to never <br />Go back there again. <br /> <br />I have not gone back <br />Because I knew you were with me. <br />And because I had faith that <br />I wouldnt drown in the sea. <br /> <br />The sea of Disorientation and Confusion. <br />The sea where happiness is only an illusion. <br /> <br />You say you're lonely <br />But baby I'm here... <br />You say you're an outcast <br />But baby I'm here... <br /> <br />I thought we would be okay <br />Though all of this. <br />I thought that you <br />Still tried to believe. <br />And yet when my imagination <br />Is sparked once again, <br />I look at my surroundings <br />But you aren't next to me... <br /> <br />I know that distance hurts, <br />It hurts me but what about you? <br />You seem even more distant because <br />Of what you have put me through. <br /> <br />I'm not trying to make you sound <br />Like this horrible mean person. <br />Because you really aren't to me. <br />I love you, though my condition seems to worsen. <br /> <br />You say you're lonely <br />But baby I'm here... <br />You say you're an outcast <br />But baby I'm here... <br /> <br />Written October 25th,2007<br /><br />Dani Miller<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/but-im-here/
