I WILL SURVIVE


I WILL SURVIVE.... (True Story)
(For the man...whom I've given my all)

Day by day, I'm learning to live my life normally.
But the more I keep on trying, the more I become lonely.
I wish, I could do the same like you do.
As if nothing happens to you.
I miss the days when we're together, the laughter and the cuddling.
I have never been so happy until you came into my life.
You showered me w/ love and caress that no one could ever imagine.
My life become so colorful and it felt so wonderful.
But problems came to us and you decided to let go off me.
Without giving me time to adjust nor put myself in the right place.
All my life was focused only on you. My eyes become blind, Doing
exactly what you wanted me to do.
But suddenly...You left me in the air... without nothing.
My heart got broken into pieces.
That until now I don't know where I should start to live my life anew.
You told me before that you love me more than anyone else.
That your life will be empty w/out me.
That you'll never find someone else but me.
That one day... if something happens between us...you'll find me.
That I must wait for you only.
But now... those words are taken by you w/ anger that I have no idea
what I've done wrong to you!
All I know is... I've given  my life and my soul to you.
And now, I have this body but I don't the feeling and the desire to
go on living.
But when I woke up this morning....I realize that I have so much
to accomplish that I had to to stop..and take time to pray.
And realizing that life has so much to offer...
My life and my heart must go on...... I will survive!
