Thread: All my life

I'd wander along
kicking my feet in the dirt
watching the dust fly up
keeping my eyes on the ground

I'd cry alone at night
with the breeze from my window
the lights all off
a sad song playing

I'd sigh everytime i saw
someone with a happy smile
wonder why I couldn't have one
curious to why i was alone

I'd stare up at the stars
wish on every one
that someday you'd find me
and everything would be ok

One day I looked up
from watching me kick the dirt
my eyes landed on you
and I took just one small chance

Now my sadness has gone away
and my fears have disappeared
I can't believe you make me smile
and forget my lonely past

it may have been a long sad road
but now you're by my side
I'd never think of letting go
I love you, Justin, my angel.
