Human, caring, sweet, and true These words mean a lot to you I am not who I say I am Everything you know about me is a sham One, Two Three, Why do you believe in me? Four, Five, Six, I'm no more than a pile of sticks My rhymes are childish And so are my thoughts Everything I say Comes out tied up in knots This is not a poem Nor is it a song This is not a story Yet you keep singing along Why can't you leave? Why must you stay? Why must you sit there, day after day? Waiting, whispering, hoping, crying Begging that this won't be my final letter Holding tight onto that sweater Praying that we'll last forever Wishing that you could have done better
