What

WHAT

“What happened to you?” The question came unexpectedly.

The answer was given honestly. “You!”

I'm Gonna Write Myself

I'm gonna write myself

Into a state of happiness.

Gonna' pen my way

Back to you again.

I’ll fill up pages,

With our Used- to-Be's.

And view all the pictures

Of how it all began.

I’m gonna feel the way

I did back then

And smell that fragrance,

see you smile and grin.

I’ll not miss one day

Of our long ago past.

My love, through a dream,

I'll see given to you again.

But you will never know
I am standing by your side.
You did not want me then.
Why would you want me now?

I could never help you see me,
though I've tried through the years.
So many letters, never sent.
I'd love to tell you, but how?
