All I Had to Give

As promised here is my second poem. I can't remember what exactly inspired this- but I was 16 when I wrote this one too... >> 


All I Had to Give

I held the promise in your eyes
And you made me feel it was real
Don't forget the truth my friend
Nothing's as it seems
You held the promise in my smile
You opened my lips and made me real
I breathed the air from your breath
I took warmth from your skin
I took what was yours
But I gave you me.
And though it's not much
It was all I had to give.
