Childhood Comfort for a Teenage Heart
written by twistedmind3306:39 AM 3/19/05I slept with my teddy bear last night
I though it’d bring me comfort
But it only brought me sorrow
As I held it tight
Hoping it’d protect me from the dark
Tears escape from my once dry eyes
I thought I’d forgotten how to cry
But I guess I thought wrong
They came
And nothing made them stop
Not my bears once warming eyes
Or its cute bow tie
Nothing changed my feelings
And I wasn’t ready to forget
I know I’m always hurting
That it’s nothing new
But this time my pain was real
I hid it all too well in front of you
I knew it wouldn’t change a thing
Instead I closed my eyes
Breathed in the sweet smell of laundry detergent
And let the tears come |
