For you and I,
The clocks turn back.
Forever lost in the pages,
The chronicles of my sinful days.

I have let you down,
Turned away.
A shattered glass,
I'll pick up the pieces.

Let loose the frustration.
The pain and agony,
For I have wronged you,
And you have never wronged me.

Your faith should have fleeted,
Should have faltered..
But it hasn't.

I had faded away,
And yet you still fought for me.

I will forever owe to you,
In a great debt of gratitude,
My life and love.

I had been mistaken.
Love like this is more than rare,
A diamond amongst the tiny grains of sand.

Cradle my heart in your hands,
Let go if you please.
I will fall back into the dark,
And onto me knees.

Away from the light,
I have always drifted.

Please hold me,
Those days are gone,
I promise.
Trust may be shallow,
I'd understand.
But one more chance,
Its all I need.

The sun is out again,
Life is sublime.
8th poem, Life seems a little more cheery than before, go figure.

Hope you all enjoy it :D

It is good that this is happy.
Even when your writing isn't dark, it can still be taken seriously. my thumbs are up to you (not in the ancient Roman death-sentencing way; in the good way.)
The only thing I was uncomfortable with was the contractions without apostrophes, but that seems somewhat inconsequential.
