You hide behind your feelings
and keep the truth locked away,
but there is so much said
in the things you don’t say

You innocently tell me
our time has come and gone
and that we can’t go back
but I don’t believe it
and this time you’re wrong

The distance you put between us
is nothing more than time lost;
a place for your feelings to hide,
yet I can hear the love in your voice
each time we talk

My patience has no end
when it comes to loving you
and I will wait a lifetime
for you to see the truth

Real love doesn’t go away
it doesn’t fade into the past,
it goes on forever
and always finds its way back

I will wait a lifetime for you
because you are my soul,
and behind all of your doubt
I know you can’t let go

You are my soul,
and I am yours, too.
If two people were ever meant to be,
it’s me and you.

The Girl In The Mirror
The sound of her tormented tears
Just breaks my heart
The sound of her pleas,her fears
Tears my soul apart
Seeing that scared look upon her face
Always makes me cry
Knowing how she longs for a comforting embrace
That inside she yearns to die
Seeing the bruises,covering from head to toe
Breaks my heart even more
Knowing she's too afraid to go
Too frightened to walk out the door
Hearing her excuses,saying he'll change
Believing,one day,the abuse will end
Telling herself,it's her,not him who's deranged
Convincing herself she doesn't need a friend
Telling herself time and time again
He's all she needs to live
Saying she loves him,and change him,she can
That she'll give him all she can give
That is she didn't always make him so mad
He wouldn't have to hit her anymore
It just makes me so sad
Knowing,he'll eventually **** her for sure
Sadly,I look at her,as she continues to cry
And my heart just aches
And knowing that I can no longer deny
What it is that really makes my heart break
Is that the girl I'm looking at,but can't really see
Thru my tears,in the mirror,is me.
