I wish... I wish you would of taken your own advice.

Some days it feels like I shouldn't be here
Like I should of died
Life just doesn't feel right
You say I'm stronger then this
The one who shouldn't give up
That I have my whole life in front of me
That I'm a great person
And that I shouldn't die
Because you would if I did.

But...


Why didn't you take your own?
Why couldn't you listen to your own advice?
Don't you know you're the one who kept me alive
You gave me spirit.
Hope
Love
Faith.

You...

You were my blessing from above
You were my guardian angel.
You were my everything to me

...

I thought you could of made it
Made it through life
Like you said I could
You really had your whole life in front of you
You would of been something great...

Like...

Like you said I would be.
I wish you just would of taken your own advice.

    And that is what makes it all the harder to hang on, most are better at giving than taking when it comes to advice!I hope that you try to remain strong in life I know it's a hard thing to do sometimes.Poetry is your outlet and you shine when writing.Please let it be enough for now.The rest will all soon follow.
