Keep my love
break my heart
but you can never take my soul
I'll never let you break me
for I am in control.
I'm not the girl I used to be
not the one you knew
I take charge in this life of mine
& I still wait for you.
rehearsing lines, what will I say?
when the time comes near,
how will I stay calm & serene
when I am filled with fear.
to tell the tale of questions asked,
the answers that you need,
remembering a lifetime passed,
when I was not so free.
how to make you understand,
how heavy is my heart
when I think of this conversation,
I shake, am torn apart.
I can only hope that you will know
that I never really let you go,
and I hope that I can make you see
through all the yrs youv'e been with me,
& when I see you take the time, dont leave,
listen to my heart,
believe.......
