You are a mystery to me,
I can't quite catch your flow.
You are so in and out,
You come and then you go.

Once I stayed the night,
With your permission.
I laid my lips on yours once,
And wanted to keep kissin'.

I emotionally can't seem
To find where I lie.
But physically I want it
To be all right.

I've thought about you.
Wondered my share.
How things would go.
Would it be fair?

I am not truly taken.
Not actually owned.
But my heart is older,
It has really grown.

I don't want to be a ruse.
Or a simple thing that passes.
I want it to be true.
Something with passion.

You want a relationship,
And you won't find it with me.
But I think you truly know
That already.

Yes I would be good to you,
Romantic as you say.
But our minds are different,
Where our interests lay.

But how would it feel,
To bite your lip?
To kiss you mouth,
And feel your touch?
To grab your hands,
Make you lose your breath
Is that to much?
Is that to tough?

I want this woman,
This other one.
But is it realistic?
Not really, no.

I know I don't go with you...
Because so many others,
Would do so much better.

But what if for a night...
We lost ourselves,
With each other?

Have a seat, sit down and talk to me.
I’m a closed book of secrets, you see.
I’ll promise you now that I won’t tell a soul.
Because I’ll do anything to make a life whole.
Know you can trust me because I’ve been in your shoes.
Swimming at the bottom with nothing to lose.
It’s worth a shot if I can save you from destroying  yourself
If I can somehow demonstrate your value, your wealth…
I know how it feels to hate the skin that you’re in.
To not know where you are and forget where you’ve been.
I understand the pain of looking in a mirror,
And seeing a blurred image although completely clear.
I’ve walked down the path where I lost myself.
I’ve been at that point where I don’t care about my health.
In front of my eyes I’ve watched a love die,
Felt all the hurt of my strong mother’s cry.
Been separated from family and came back home,
Unanchored and drowning when allowed to roam.
Experienced first love and letting it slip away
Never spilling the words that I was dying to say.
Been used like a play thing and left here to die
Picking my pride back up and hanging myself up to dry.
Lost good friends that I will never get back,
But forming new friendships that will forever last.
Losing my faith in God and even in air,
Finding my way back through the power of prayer.
I am here for you and I’m here for anyone
Who on a bright summer day cannot find the sun.
If you feel like the sum of your parts is worth nothing,
Come have a talk with me so I can tell you something.
You are worth more than the weapons in your hands,
So if not for yourself, who will ever take a stand?
Your body is the greatest gift you will ever obtain
So treat it with care and forget about the pain.
And if after all this you are still holding the knife,
Talk to me so I can remind the beauty of this crazy life.
