You call me stingy
And yes I am
And stronger now than when my heart was weak and flimsy and girlish
And you took my love
And tossed it aside
And now you say again wait wait wait
Let us try
And sure why not? It's just our hearts
On the line
Mine has cracked open and I can see inside. Ouch and wow and yay!!!
So do not wonder why it is that I stand still and scratch my head
While my heart beats away all the beats it has left
And then my head, wondering
At your ways, your odd ways
While inside I quake and hope and yes fear but even still I want to...why?
It is a woman's heart now inside me
A woman's head
It is still the thoughts and the hope of love and opening and touching
Presents and smiling and laughing and sharing and trusting
That we are kindred spirits
And we know how amazing it could be, we can feel it
That maybe this time is our time
It is the stuff of my dreams
Our coming together
But I am not a yo yo or your toy
And you are not mine
And yes I get mad
But I don't bother trying to get even
I'd rather be trusted and respected than loved or hated
We both have ****** it all up
I own it. Do you?
And I am sorry
Missed the cues
Misunderstood
Me not more than you
Think about that
It was not only me who erred
That is where we seemed to fall
Both of us blaming me and that is not fair but neither is life
And I don't like the word blame anyway

But my love for who you are is true
No matter what
And I still want to kiss you
And hug you
And things
I'm just here you know?
And you are there
Is there a bridge?
I do not understand subtlety always especially when I don't know who is you anymore and that's the way you want it fine it's not brave but ok I understand why and my yes my words are indicators of what my actions would be but no I do not read minds and I can not understand what is invitation and what is go away so help me with that I have tried so hard but I can't do it all by myself so
