Keeping Me Together

The pain festers
deep in my heart
as these horrid thoughts
threaten to tear me apart

But with one look in your eyes
all the pain goes away
I never really thought
I would ever feel this way

After what he did
I swore Id never love
so falling for you
I never dreamed of

My heart skips a beat
whenever we kiss
And when we have to part
it's your touch I miss

My world is fragile
but my love is strong
and I'll do what it takes
to right all my wrongs

I've made so many mistakes
and each one I regret
the scars they left behind
I could never forget

I'm so used to people
leaving me like before
that I feel nothing good
can last in my life anymore

I don't know what your love
is doing to me
I see through the me
that I used to be

I see that my thoughts
are flawed by my past
and that maybe for once
this happiness will last

I owe you so much
for healing my breaks
and to prove it to you
I'll do whatever it takes
