Just Wondering

I crawl away from my mistakes,
But you pull me back into your embrace.
And it makes me say "home"
Though I deserve to be left alone.

No, I don't want you to go,
Because you stand me up when I'm low.
And if you don't want me to do the same,
Just tell me truly you'll remain.

And I swear I'll be happy with that feeble promise,
Because you know I'm not one of common sense.
So if you whisper your aid to me,
I'll forget that things aren't as they seem.

And when the boulder crushes my chest,
I'm just wondering if you'll help me out of this mess.
I'm hoping you'll let me hold onto you,
And pull me up out of this deep blue.

Oh, once you come along,
I'll be able to hold up my head, but not for long.
My sweet hero, help me hold on,
And if I can't aid you, I'll go after this song.

But if you stand me up and I don't in return,
It might be because I haven't really learned.
I'm just wondering when you'll see I can't help you,
And hoping that won't make you go too.

I believe in John Lennon because he told me all I need is love, & to me that seems pretty accurate.

If I Am Strong....

Inspired by @sarahgamal I am Strong poem. If I am strong, Then why when I am trying to be do I start to shake. If I am strong, Then why when I am yelled at tears will spring.

Cure?

Trembling at the thought of seeing you. Terrified knowing this is something I have to do. Shaking like a leaf. Why am I scared beyond belief. We'd agreed today was the day.

A Friend.

Sometimes all I want is a shoulder to cry on, Sometimes I want a comfy pillow to lie on. Sometimes I just need a hand to guide me through the dark, Sometimes I want someone who'll be completely stark.

I Want.

I want to see what I look like through other peoples eyes. I want to see if they can see what lies beneath. I want to see if they can see what I'm hiding.

A Soul.

Fragile as a new-born, Translucent as a past, Touch me and I'll shatter, I wasn't meant to last. Hold me, I'll be broken, Leave me, I will fade, Love me, live me, I will die, Ignore me where I'm laid.

Weak

I have to be a strong father, husband, son for I am a man. I pray for a sign, a show of strength, anything that lets me know there's a plan. My friends, my family all offer their shoulder.

I Need.

I need love,. I need to smile,. I need to laugh,. Just for a while,. I need quiet,. I need tranquility,. I need fun,. And serenity,. I need a friend,. I need an ear,. I need a listener,.
