Here I Am

by Nicole M. - Gemini

You gave me dreams I didn't even know I had
Or even wanted, in fact.
You settled into my heart
And layed there comfortably.
But I suppose when you stretch your neck
Along the cutting block
It will only get cut off.
So now here I stand
thanks to you
Left out in the middle of nowhere
                      

                        Here I am


Now all I can think
Is how it's happening again
And the shame is
It's only my own doing
For loving again.
I should have known
Once again
Love is nothing but a four letter word
That doesn't exist.

              
                      Here I am

And I don't want anyone.
