Real Love?

by Just Sierra   Jan 3, 2005


This pain is strangely familiar
Though I hate the sound
Of your constant cries
Echoing off the ground

I hate waking up
To hear your lonely cries
Know how much you missed him
And a part of you dies

It’s hard to accept it
But as your girl I have to be strong
Without me, where would you be?
You could not last long

I’m trying to be your shoulder
The one that you can lean on
But I’m not only carrying you, but a giant boulder
And I don’t think I can last very long

I’m breaching my pressure point
In where I want to cry
I want to scream at him
And let him know what it feels like to die

I’m tired of seeing your aching face
Up, very early in the morning
I just want to put him in his place
And end all of your mourning

This isn’t the life I want to live
I want to taste the good and never the bad
I want to people to be happy with advice I give
Because sometimes it helps me feel not so sad

Mommy, I’m so sorry
That you let a man do this to you
I really hate to say this
But he must not have really loved you.
