Granted....

I see you now, for the first time,..
..i really see you......
And i know i took you for granted.
That you would never leave me,
I could hate you,..
and you would still be there...
your love unconditional.
And your love is still unconditional...
but your life is not...
I had the firm grip...
But you were what i was gripping...
You were the base for my troubles and my hapiness...
All that i am spawned from you....
and took a life of it's own with maturity...
I was so damned sure, and so well-grounded...
but you were the ground,..
and i'm left standing on nothing...
falling into unsurity,...
empty handed,..and alone,..
and no longer loved unconditionally...
never take anything for granted...
because everything has an end....
