Eric

by Amanda Wharton(Capricorn) - Not entered

The kind of love I have for you,
I thought I'd never feel
There was a time I wondered 
if even it was real

I know now that it is
but I realized too late
There's nothing i can do
They say it was your fate

This kind of love is powerful
It's deep inside my heart
This love is so destructive
It's tearing me apart

If you were standing by me
I know I'd be ok
but without you in my life
I can't stand another day

Why does nothing change?
How's it stay the same?
Why's the sun still shine?
How does it still rain?

My world ended when I heard
Why did nothing stop?
Why's the world still spinning?
It's supposed to halt

I promise I'll keep trying 
but I'm sliding down so low
I can start another day
but how many just don't know

Reason for writing:

    I wrote this for my first crush and only love who passed away on Jan.4,1997.
I submitted it to warn young people like my self about the dangers of Heroin(or any drug for that matter).
PLEASE-Think no less of him. It can grab ahold of those you least expect. He was truly a wonderful person. An angel on Earth.
