Melissa 1999You come to me with open arms willing to hold me while I cry.
Caring about me when no one else seems to.
Lending me your ear when no one else would listen to my tears, screams, fears.
When I am alone, the thought of you comforts me.
I feel your strong arms,
See your paint stained hands,
But you are not there.
You've built walls which I would tear down if I had the chance.
But I will never have that chance.
You know me too well,
But the one thing you don't know...is that I love you.
Little girl, hiding in the corner--crying--
Her father had hurt her--violated her,
She wonders why--wonders what she has done
Her mother is yelling now--calling her a whore
Just because she is growing up?
She thinks about dying
No--she will not die today
She will just go one crying
in her little corner
For the rest of her life
My sweet angel--
I watch you sleeping
Your strong body totally relaxed
Moonlight crosses the bed, leaving you in an unearthly glow.
You stir restlessly--perhaps caught in a dream
But I am here--watching over you
As if you feel my prescence you slowly open your sweet eyes and take me into your arms.
We make love, and again I watch you--my angel--sleep.
Sometimes I feel like
the whole world hates me
Everyone ignores me
No one even cares
Sometimes I feel like
the whole world loves me
everyone pays attention
everyone cares.
I thought our love was never ending, sweet and pure.
I thought our love was never ending, but now I am unsure.
You've told me lies, cheated on me--
Just how loving do you expect me to be?
I thought our love was never ending
I guess it was all a lie.
