Love inside your hands

by Kristi White   Feb 21, 2006


All the love I had in me was all that I had left.
I had the friends, the perfect life
but I took it for advantage.
And I never really cared at all that I possessed
but there was 1 thing in my life
that I wanted with all I had.
And that 1 thing I had was all I couldn't get.
I gave and gave and never took
until he loved me back.
And love is something weird for me
because love only equals heartbreak
and it wasn't for me, I'm already broke.
It only hurt the boy who stood by my side... by me.
And I refuse to watch him hurt
because of the love from me.
Sure I did all I could for him
but I didn't feel anything for me
and so I take all I have and hold it in my grasp.
My world's in my palm ready for the world to steal
but instead, I hand it back.
Please be carefully with what you choose to do
with my love that to you I bestow.
I give it to you because you're the 1
I fear can't give love of your own
and all I ask in return is to never guess your worth.
Just share the love with the 1 you care for most.
Don't be afraid to chase the dreams
for true love of your own
and if that girl isn't me...
well... only you would know
but if it is, I made a mistake
and I'll be here if you want to talk
but I don't know what to do anymore
so I'm just going to leave
and wait for you to think things over.
And if you feel lost, glance through everything of ours
as a reminder of what we had
and look at it closely
because that's what you gave me
and that's what you deserve to have.
