Try to hold onto me,
hold on tight,
don’t tell me to walk away,
let’s end this miserable fight.
When you say you don’t want to be with me,
it gives me pain I’ve never felt,
when you tell me you can’t stand me,
it’s like playing the worst hand ever dealt.
I’ve given to you everything,
only to have it thrown back in my face,
everyday I’m here,
I feel I’m only invading your space.
I crave your attention,
your love and your touch,
your heart and your desires,
your fantasies and such.
So try to hold onto me,

This time it felt right,
my weakness, I could no longer deny,
I would have done anything for you,
all I do now is ask why.
My life seems different,
I think I’ve changed in many ways,
for instance, I no longer cry all night,
for thinking about our yesterdays.
I no longer sit around,
waiting just for you to call,
I no longer sit around waiting,
waiting for you at all.
Though I love you with all my heart,
and have gave forgiveness for what was done,
I have to give my love,
and be loved by someone.

You give your all,
only to get nothing in return,
that’s one of lifes lessons,
that’s hardest to learn.
When your love is no longer enough,
and they say it’s time to walk away,
how do you stop the tears,
or keep from thinking about yesterday?
When your time becomes extinct,
and love too, noo longer exists,
you’ll lift your hands up high,
and at God, shake your fists.
You’ll wonder and sometimes question yourself,
as to why he doesn’t care,
but life sometimes works that way,
yes I know, this isn’t fair.

Our love was left empty,
broken, bruised, and battered,
my heart was taken for granted,
left lonely, cold, and shattered.
I go back to the times,
when I was in your arms so tight,
holding as we sleep,
until the morning light.
I thought we were meant to be,
a 12 year friendship with a certain connection,
it took only 2 years to prove me wrong,
and begin unfinished perfection.
If I had a choice,
I would do it all again,
even if you include,
all the pain I held within.

I know I’m going to give into you,
the minute you walk through the door,
I know I keep saying,
of this, my heart can take no more.
I wonder if you hear me,
if you listen to me at all,
chances are that you don’t,
and my heart will soon take the fall.
I try to see if you really love me,
or if only for the moment you do,
I give you my heart and soul,
both broken, tried, and true.

If I gave up, and just walked away,
that means I would forever lose you,
I never want that to happen,
because there’s a chance I’d
lose the kids too.
They mean the world to me,
nothing could ever really take them away,
for I hold them in my arms, in my heart,
and in memories, every single day.
Once you told me,
that true love will take us places,
it seems to me,
I’m only being led to traces.
Traces of what,
you and I used to be,
traces that slowly come together,
and the pictures painted perfectly.

I wanted to believe,
that the one I love would do me no harm,
yet here I am tonight,
wondering who’s in your arms.
I’ve called several times,
no one’s picked up the phone,
I walk into this empty house,
to find there’s no one home.
I’m afraid reality will soon set in,
and loneliness once more,
I will have to face again.
Come and save me tonight,
guide me out of the dark,

Tell me to come home,
that you need me tonight,
that without me,
to you comes no morning light.
When I’m here I’ll bring you sunshine,
to brighten up your day,
to be here and to listen,
no matter what you have to say.
So, the one you chose to talk to,
let it be me,
here with open ears,
for you to confide in fearlessly.
These words I write for you,
I hope you hear them well,
there’s no one else but you and me,
as far as I can tell.
So tell me to come close to you,
you want to hold me near and tight,

I’m starting my life again,
I’m starting it brand new,
I’m going to forget the day,
the very moment, I laid eyes on you.
You played with my mind
and you teased my broken heart,
I’ve come to the realization,
it’s best if we’re apart.
Better for my thoughts,
just better for me,
HA! you always did say
I was a selfish s.o.b.
I only thought of myself,

You have put me in my place,
I now know where I fit,
you’ve told me over and over,
that here is not it.
I belong somewhere else,
in someone else’s arms,
far away from you,
where to me will come no harm.
Was I in someones way,
did I keep her from you,
I can’t believe this is how you treat me,
as good as I was to you.
I came to you and
my heart was on my sleeve,
I told you that I love you,
and you said you’d never leave.
My feelings are never fading,
these feelings I have for you,
