She used to be my heart to heart
The only person I told my deepest secrets
She was the umbrella that shielded me from the rain
She was the punch bag that I left all my fists of anger and pain
She was the ear to which I yelled all my nasty thoughts
The only person who could stomach my rotten parts
She was the only one who saw me release my lonely tears when sad
She was my pillow.
She was my pillow
She held me to sleep
She held my head
And read my mind Listened to my silent fears
And left a shoulder for me to lean on
She saw right through me
And calmed my heart
She discerned the hurly-burly of my emotions
And she would put her arms around me
To me they were an angel’s wings
Wings that I felt fall off
They drifted away little by little Until it dawned me one day
That she was gone
She left my head hanging
She, my pillow could not hold me longer.
She was my pillow
And she was gone
She left me to the mercy of my emotions
My challenges and fears I learned to live the hardest way
I built a barricade and closed my heart therein
I learnt to depend on no one else but me
I drew strength from my inner man to carry on
I never shed a tear again
For I had no pillow to collect them
My heart got hard like an armored car
All I am left to give the world Is this innocent smile
But behind it layeth words unsaid
Words of anger, hate, pain and love
All rushing like a strong wind in my head
Hanging in their till I find her or yet another,
A pillow for me to vent.
Would you be my pillow?
To calm me right to sleep
To hold me when I sleep
To drain my tears in the night
To greet me when I wake
My pillow to help me dream dreams
And envision my future
Be the door to shut out my fears
The fountain that fills up the emptiness inside of me
I need someone to draw my strength from
Someone who will dare me to claim the sky
One that sees past my flaws,
Just because I come off strong doesn’t mean there’s nothing wrong
And just because you’ve never seen me shed a tear
It doesn’t mean my heart doesn’t cry
I need someone
Someone, with whom we won’t just survive,
But one with whom we will thrive.
