I'll take on the world

by WanderingShade   Jan 11, 2014


I feel myself changing,
And I can't tell if it's for the better,
Or for the worse...
I'm putting you first,
Like I always have,
But things feel different somehow...
I can't tell if it's because of you,
That my darkness feels so strong,
Or if it's because I'm trying to steal away your pain...
I'm starting to withdraw again,
Starting to feel like i don't know who I'm supposed to be,
I'm getting lost again...
But this time it doesn't hurt,
This time I can feel the weight of the world on my shoulders,
And I'm enjoying it...
I like being there for you,
There isn't any pain in this,
I feel... Right?
I don't know how to explain it,
I swear if I could I would,
But for some reason I feel happy,
Knowing I can bring a smile to your face,
While the rest of the world attempts to take it away...
And I want you to remeber,
That as long as there is a breath in me,
I'll take on the world for you...
