True story... well... lol ya =)


"Before This Moment"

Looking below my line of view,
I see a girl I once knew quite well.
Her tears have fallen,
Her heart has broken,
Her hope was lost,
Many times before this moment.

She turns her head away from my eyes.
Ashamed of what I know about her.
Of what I know she feels.
I brush a strand of hair from her face,
tucking it behind her ear.
I never realized I was touching an angel,
Before this moment.

Her jeans are tight. Her top is small.
I turn over her arm. Blood stains the soft skin.
She flinches in pain. I touch a drop.
The red is warm, and full of life.
Just like her. This life is flowing forever within her.
But she doesn’t see it. And neither did I
Before this moment.

I clean the stains. I kiss them closed.
I touch her chin and turn her gaze forward.
She tries to pull away. No matter how much she cries to me.
No matter how much she screams.
I don’t let go.
Never did I let go.
But my grasp did slip
Before this moment.

But finally she stopped struggling.
And listened to what I had to say.
I whispered to her gently.
“ For every time you hurt me,
I forgive you.
For every time you tried to kill me,
I forgive you
For ever time you did me wrong.
I forgive you”
I never could’ve said it to her.
Before this moment.

Before this moment,
I could never forgive myself.

yow. good. all i saw was a couple of punct errors but otherwise, sweet. :) *shed a tear*
