Stand close but not too near to my heart
breathe but not on my skin
smile and laugh but not at my jokes
listen to my stories but don't be a player in them
keep me in your thoughts but leave mine for the night
let it pass.. let me go..
play the little game but know that I'm crying on the inside
blame me for my faults but don't tell me how much you enjoy them
speak to me but only for seconds at a time
know I'll always be there but don't make me feel needed
understand that I miss you but can't see you
let it pass.. let me go..
no matter how well I fit in your arms don't hug me for too long
as easy as it may be to allow me back in don't make this last
believe me when I lie about being alright
be aware that as hard as I try my smile will look empty
don't turn away but don't linger
there are many angry words..
there is an endless sea of tears
there are questions and doubts
there is a hole that can't be filled
and then there's me..
a stupid girl asking to have her heart broken
missing you today but missing myself more
scotch tape and safety pins are holding me together
I didn't mean to go this far..
let it pass.. let me go..
moving on.. being strong..
learning to not love you..
like I said I'm alright.. you believe me right?
