Just Wait A Little Longer Poem by Mandy Lee

I came so close to breaking down,
so close to losing it all.
I never thought that this I'd say,
But please catch me when I fall.

For so long I've been running away,
afraid to face my fears.
And now you've come and picked me up,
and wiped away my tears.

If only you could see,
just how far I've come.
The person I used to be,
and the person standing here...right now.

So could you wait a little longer,
for the sorry I wish to say.
For only you could ever know,
how much it hurts this way.

I thought I kept it still,
locked up and hidden far.
And yet you come and pry my heart out,
open to you as the sun.

Many nights you've seen me,
at my very worst.
And yet you love me all the same,
Filling my heart till it bursts

If only you could see,
just how far I've come.
The person I used to be,
and the person standing here...right now.

(I meant this as a song, but it can go both ways :)
