So much depends upon The strength of that boy That gangling brown haired boy Who may be skin and bone But somehow manages To carry around the weight of loving me Every day And to have my burdens and baggage On his back But I'm scared that someday His strength will fail him And he'll be crushed And I'll have been the undoing Of the one person I never wanted to see hurt
So much depends upon The patience of that boy That boy who is usually go go go But for some reason slows down And waits for me to catch up And can always tell when something's wrong And always cares And listens to me complain But I'm scared that someday His patience will have run dry And he'll take off running on his own Because I held him back
So much depends upon The blindness of that boy Who is the smartest person I know But was stupid enough To fall in love with me And I know it's selfish of me But I wouldn't mind If his love was unending But I'm scared that someday His blindness will dissolve And he'll realize he deserves better And the only person holding me together Will hate me As much as I hate myself
I was reading The Fault In Our Stars and the poem the red wheelbarrow is in it and it inspired me.
