to break away, to be alone
and wish that i were more than stone
is what i wish and nightly pray
that i might be able to be me someday
the words i find ring dull and low
feelings i know i will never show
but to have this chance to prove to me
i am as good as i know i can be
for i know in my heart there is a love
for myself below and the stars above
and in that i heart i know i will find
a peace that not only lies in the mind
but lies in the souls of the ones i hold dear
and teaches me to face and not run from my fears
my fears of loneliness and a life half lived
sometimes it seems i have nothing to give
but tomorrow will come like it does everyday
and i'll rise in the morning and to myself will i say
be brave and be strong because that is just you
and today is your chance to start life anew

I took this poem as meaning that at one point in your life you were hurt by someone that you loved. And you really loved this person and it took a lot of time to get over them. And although you may think you'll never be able to move on you will realize soon that you will be able to move on. And then you realize that you can start over and find someone else to love. Sorry if I'm wrong with the meaning. Great write.
