when i fall
will you catch me?
will you hold me safe in your arms?
will you love me?
or will you let me fall?
will i hit the ground?
wondering how i let this be?
why i put so much trust in you?
why i showed you the real side of me?
it hurts being in love
not know how the other person feels
wondering if he'll just laugh at you
how you could i ever think it was real?
sitting
wondering
how
why you let yourself get caught up again?
did i not learn before
that in this game of love
i was not meant to win
at the age of a lonely fourteen
people of all ages and races
look you up in down
giving you the strangest faces
asking
how do you know what love is?
you're too young to understand
how do these strangers
know what I've been through?
how can they relate?
did they see their grandmother one week
then a few months later she's dead?
not given a chance to say goodbye
wanting to see her face one more time
even when she was about to die
you don't care if she didn't look the same
nor if she was the same woman
all you wished to do was tell her that you loved her
and that you wanted her to be strong
is loving someone so special to you
have to be so wrong
you look for that love that you once found in her
the absentee farther thats never around
he wants to be with you
but can't
it hurts when you were so young and didn't stand a chance
against you mother
who took care of you from the start
you loved you unconditionally
not with a part but all of her heart
you just want to be understood
in this Strange world
not used and abused
understanding
forgiven
thats all i ask
but the question
are you willing?
