Don't let go
Not a day goes by that I don't ask God why I didn't find you earlier in life,
Before the women, before the bars before the misery and strife.
Before I thought like a young eaglet, that I could teach myself to fly
Only to plummet toward the ground where I thought that was the last thing I would see
But like a mother eagle swooping down to save her child you caught me.
I didn't make it easy because I didn't want to believe I needed you
You tried to get close but I pushed you away not knowing you needed me too
Faster and faster and further I fell all while you said “just talk to me”
“I want to understand so I can lend a helping hand” but I said “just let me be”
“You wouldn't understand, nobody ever does”
But you were not just somebody
You were placed in my path by God to be,
The exact puzzle piece that He designed to complete the masterpiece that was me.
And I think it's safe to say that we complete each other
When I am weak you are the strength God gave me
When I can't see you are my eyes, you are my guide
When my mind is cluttered with all life throws my way
You are there each and every day
You could have packed up and ran a long time ago
And I would not have blamed you
But you put up with my mess and for that I say “Thank You”
Thank you for the nights you were a shoulder to lean on
Thank you for the days you were someone I could call on
Thank you for the moments you helped me up
Thank you for the seconds you helped fill my cup
Words can't express how you make me feel
And sometimes I don't express that feeling like I should
But I want you to know that without you I would have fell a long time ago
So I ask that
No matter how hard,
No matter how tough,
No matter how long and,
No matter how rough
Don't let me go and I will hold on to you too

Do you love me
I don't know
I wish I did though
I hear you talking
I see the words
But to me it's just hot air
I don't see any action
I don't see any verbs
If asked I would say you don't care
Where did it go?
That spark we once had
Or was I dreaming and it was never there
Have we been going off motions
Off the notion that if the truth where out people might stare
I don't care about people no more
I only care about us and if what we have is real
Cause right now the way things look I can't truly tell how you feel
10 yrs it will be soon and all you asked for is a ring
But I just can't see it
Buying a ring when the pain I feel stings
I have tried the candle light dinners
Tried the nice massages
Tried the flowers to the job
But I keep seeing these mirages
Love that looks so real
Until you reach out and touch it
Only for it to fade into thin air
And in your clutches
Is nothing
Love should be like a rain storm
No matter how hard you try you get wet
You can't avoid the down pour
But I feel our love is like a single rain drop
You try your best to catch it
And sometimes you do
But other times that rain drop tries and succeeds at avoiding you
Maybe it is a rain storm
And I just have my umbrella up
Maybe I saw love coming and took shelter under a roof
Maybe Cupid tried to shoot me with an arrow but I ducked
I don't know what it is
My perception could be wrong
But that is where I am right now
Do you love me?

In this world I'm all alone
I'm by myself
I'm on my own
No one understands
The things I struggle with
The cards in my hand
Who do I talk to
When what they see and
How I feel are not the same
In public I try to stand strong
But inside I have brittle bones
