You saw me standing there,
Cold, broken, and alone
You somehow knew my flaws
Before I did myself.

You aimed your rifles at me
Your talons poised to strike;
I came out alive but scarred
Heaven only knows how.

So now you've launched a surprise attack
Thinking I'd be alone
You dared not stare me down with your hateful glare
As cowards, you couldn't meet my eyes.

You were ready to strike me down
And leave my body all ablaze
You didn't realize
This solitary soilder was not standing alone.

You didn't see their faces.
You didn't hear their voices.
You didn't know they were there
Until we conquered you from within.
You counted on me fighting alone
As I always used to do.

But you didn't notice
Our extensive arsenal
You underestimated our strength and our power.
You thought you would strike me down
With a single blow.

You didn't count on my having a verifiable army behind me.

I wrote this about two weeks ago. My friends who know me in person know what was going on then.

I don't usually dedicate my poems. If they're about you, I make sure you know it, and that's that. But this one is special. This one is dedicated to all my friends who have stood by me, especially these last few weeks. This poem is specifically for:

Rani :iconlonelyemogirl4evr: (Love, you should have seen this coming. You didn't think something so huge would happen to me and I wouldn't get any poetry out of it, did you? :p There's not much to say about you here without me getting all sentimental, so I'll leave it at YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND AND DON'T FORGET IT FOR A SECOND. EVER.)

Alice :iconlonelygirl10: (From Pretty Little Liars, to Glee, to Twilight, we never run out of things to talk about. I still have pictures of us when we were little. We were so adorable :XD: Taylor Swift buddies forever darling ;))

These two people up there? They're kind of amazing. Like, the kind of amazing that people spend their lives searching for. I don't know what I would do without them. Actually, no, screw that. I'd die without them.

Forever yours,
PBR :blackrose:

Well a girl can hope. I am just glad I didn't have you telling me all this in person. You would catch me quite off guard and I would end up saying something incredibly stupid about the weather or ask you very politely why the hell you were getting all mushy on me. You my sister. How could you not be my best friend? Thats insanity..........

I would have wound up hugging you on impulse if I told you all this in person. And that would've just killed the moment.
I've never had a friend like you. You mean the world to me. AND DONT U FORGET IT!!!

I would have gasped, shuddered and ran away from you if you hugged me. You mean much more than the world to me. I won;t forget it....just so long as you don't forget it.....

I know. I do stupid things on impulse.
You essentially are my world. And I try, very hard, to remember it. Every second of every minute of every day of my sorry life.

Its okay. Don't you think I know that you do stupid things on impulse? I mean, this is you we are talking about here *rolls eyes* But if you did hug me, I might just avoid coming into close contact with you for a few days. And flinch whenever you mad a movement in my direction.
You had better remember it. Or else *shakes fist in air like Abeer*

Of course, this is me we're talking about. What does Tina Fay do besides stupid things?
I do try and remember.....

She does smart intelligent, sweet, thoughtful, wonderful things.
Its okay. I won't hold it against you if you forget and hug me by accident.
