Ok....here is a poem/song that I wrote about two and a half years 
ago...but sometimes I am amazed at how apropos some of these old 
lyrics/poems are in the scheme of things today...



WHERE ARE YOU NOW?
------------------

I knew someday the choices I've made would catch up to me.
And as I watch you walk on by, I realize it's come to be.
If only I could show you how much I really cared;
If only you'd understand that I've been running scared.

You see, I've grown up looking through a glass wall;
Everytime I tried to break through, I only seemed to fall.
My hands are beating against the glass like the rain;
If I hold my heart tightly, I won't feel the pain.

And I'm walking alone,
Where are you now?
All the empty words were the shadow of a promise somehow.
And I'm walking alone,
Where are you now?

I believed you when you promised that your love would never end.
You said we're less than lovers, a little more than friends.
I never meant to cause you any sorrow or any pain;
But the way you showed your love was slowly driving me insane.

I know I promised never to tell a living soul,
But I held it in too long, I had to let it go.
You never really cared, and it took so much from me;
To keep pretending an living a lie that could never set me free.

And I'm walking alone,
Where are you now?
All the empty words were the shadow of a promise somehow.
And I'm walking alone,
Where are you now?
