Let It Slip

by Cassie   May 27, 2005


A shield.

That's what it is, isn't it?
That curtain you pull over the real you
I know you're in there
I've seen through the crack in your wall

Behind your cryptic answers,
Inside your heart shaped stone,
I know you must be hurting,
and feeling all alone.
I want to get to know you,
and how you think and tick
I want to really show you,
that by your side I'll stick
Through all the ups, and all the downs
All the smiles, and all the frowns

You know, your shield will be your downfall.
But only you can let it down
But only you can realize what I say is true
Only you can let me know how I can help

I know how you feel
And I promise, if you'll let me,
I'll help your wounds heal
I want you to know that I love you,
I care...
And I want you to know
That I'll forever be there
Look! Don't you see there are people
who love you
Someone like Me....I do...
Look at me. Inside I'm screaming
Please...Just let it slip.
No, you won't. I must be dreaming.

Must you be so stubborn?
You aren't only hurting yourself.
You're hurting me- I'm drowning
Prove to me you care.
All I ask, please let me in.
And I'll help the healing begin.
Let the wall down...one brick at a time.
And let me explore your beautiful mind.
