If I die before I wake (love me)

If I die before I wake....

I promise that I wont forget.
Although I've cried, I don't regret....
All this time I've loved in vain.
Loved those who didn't feel the same.
Perhaps the footprint left, was small.
But I'm lucky to have loved at all.
My heart has always been sincere.
I just can't help who I hold dear.
They all could just throw me away.
But still my love, it did not sway.
No one seemed to want to keep me.
And though at times it hurt me deeply.
The only love I get, is what I make.
So If I die before I wake...

Love me....

I found this deeply felt and I found it proufound. I love the wording and the way it flowed. But even more then that I loved the way it made me feel. I know and realize the pain all up and through there but I also feel all the hope and confidence behind it. And that confidence is brand new and it makes my heart warm to feel it coming off of you.
And for the record, if you haven't been able to tell. That footprint in my life, was huge. And you could have pulled something simular out of me recently.

yeah.. it was another off the top of my head poem, infact... some of these rhymes, I may have used them, or something simular to them before. But, I've never felt this way before... So sure that Im ready to let go of regret. I used to think regret was my most loyal companion.
