Every day, you make a choice
To stay silent or raise your voice.
And that's your choice, and I respect it.
I just want you to know
That if today, you decide you want
To be a lion
and let people hear you roar,
I'll roar with you until you don't feel alone or broken anymore.
was that me
breathing

questioning

watching you breathe
lasts for me
an
lifetime

that we be found
less than
i
am

here we have water for you
eternity has streched across broken shorelines
castles have crumbled beneath our feet


watching her dream
her soft skin penetrating me

tracing the out line of her breath
every breath she takes seduced me
i want to take her
in
my
arms

for now
we let
her
sleep

the giant in me
she
dragon's


when you hear her breathe
you to will believe
shh
listen
listen again

My love, you need to grow up
It's time for you to become an adult
I won't take the blame anymore
To shield you from the pain

It's time to own up to your own faults
To become the lady you want to be
Though I can't take all the blame
I will own up to my part

I tried to keep your innocence
Tried to save you the pain
I can't handle playing this game
It hurts to bad to lie

Saturday was my last day
I care for you so much my darling
You're pushing me away for good
I'm breaking inside and screaming
My wounds you can not see

It's time to grow up sweetheart
It's time to stop the games
