The words I wanna say,
I can't express the way
that I feel
My words are lacking in beauty, they're bland.
I just wish they'd come out through my hand
When I'm writing
I just wish that they'd flow
So you would know
How much I care about your growth
As a woman, as my friend
And I hope that our friendship never ends
But frankly I'm scared
That you're not aware
That I am here too
It's not all about you
I feel so used

But no matter what
I'd do anything for you
Cause I'm trynna help
Cause I know that you're hurting
Inside though you cover it
By throwing
Yourself on these men
Who don't love you for what is inside
And it hurts me to tell you
That you need to stop.

It's not worth the pain
Of them leaving after one night of ***
So you move on to the next
Your convinced that they love you each time
But I'm trynna tell you through this rhyme
That you need to take your time
To find out who they are,
And I know you've been scarred
And that is why I am here.
To take you into my home
So that you don't have to be alone
Just put down that **** phone
And see those who love you
Who wanna help you and guide you

But listen I'm gonna be honest
You can't stay here forever
And if you don't wanna change then that's fine
Whatever.
There's nothing I can do
Except tell you
How much I care
But when you leave
Always remember
You can always come back
It doesn't matter
The way that you come
Cause I'm here to help you
And we are still friends
And that will never end

Sincerely,
Someone who cares too much
