The last thing I want to become,
What I've made my self out to be.
You mean more to me than that,
I should mean more to you
My hearts been battered and bruised
Worked up, turned out and used
Analyze, nag, doubt, blame
Emotions to balance needs vs shame
I build you up
To tear you down
I have to remember,
You're not who I thought or want you to be,
You're who I've always known you to be.
The simple smile, warmth and unreserved candor
Are the things I love most that you bring out in me,
As I see those same things reflected in you from the presence of me.
