They tell me to be strong
but i want to be weak,
they say get over him
but i just can't seem to do that,
...

I'm scared to shed a tear for someone,
I'm scared to open my heart and be disappointed,
I'm scared to truly and deeply love another
because of my past,
...

why do you feel the need bring me down,
i can tell it brings pleasure to you life,
do you spend all you waking hours planning this?
and I've sat here endured all of it,
...

At first you really don't care,
i mean this secretiveness is exactly you can bare,
but the minutes fly by fast,
then the hours start to become past,
...

no matter how many stories i hear,
or people you've hurt,
i still find myself liking you,
even more for that matter maybe,
...

I wish I could walk away,
from you, from this, from it all,
but I can't,
I'm so dependent on you,
...

these tears won't stop rolling down my face,
the pain won't go away,
no matter how hard i try to hold it back,
the look in my eyes wont vanish from my soul,
...

why must we lie to ourselves,
believing in something we wish and hope is true,
we make up this dream that there is this one true person out there,
not knowing that we only say this to comfort our discomfort that they don't exist,
...

Her eyes lit up bright,
even in the moonlight,
her face in the dark looked beautiful,
but the love we shared wasn't typical,
...

dear friend,
these letters sent hold our friendship from our past,
they showed me how much you cared,
told me how much you loved me,
...

You see that, s the tricky thing about us,
we begin to get smart about after a while,
you know catch on to your foolish games,
we start to see things clearer and question your presence,
...

She grew up without a father,
than you came,
then you married her mother,
you where still that same nice person,
