Self doubt is usually our biggest flaw
We see ourselves differently
From the person we are
Selling ourselves short
When in truth we’re much more
Than we ever have
Given ourselves credit for
Moments in life rock us
Because we’re able to see
That there’s more to us
Than we once believed
I know the smile on her face is a mask
Put up to keep the world from asking
Questions like what’s wrong
She’s growing on me
Though I haven’t known her too long
I know she gets stressed sometimes
Trying to figure it all out
We’re all in her shoes sometimes
Never really knowing what life’s about
When she starts to think
The snowball starts to roll
Before she knows it
It’s spiraling out of control
She tries to avoid complications
That would only add on more stress
She’s looking out for herself
Doing what she think is best
Then along comes this guy
Who sets off all alarms
But works his way in anyway
What are his intentions
They all have them
No matter what they say
Things start to feel
Comfortable
Filling us both with dismay
She doesn’t want to deal with problems
I don’t want the problems
To end up driving her away
I just want to take her far from it all
If only it’s for a moment
Forget about all the stress
Lose ourselves in good times
Not remember where the day went
It’s complicated
Nothing is ever simple is it?
My plans to help her feel better
Are just another complication
Coming for a visit
She’s my past past, present and future
When I feel myself fall apart
I trust her to be my suture
Even though currently
She’s far away from me
When I close my eyes
She’s all that I see
A future that I can’t wait for
A life that I forsee
Saying I Do
Then starting forever
So many memories
I can’t wait to remember
Up and down they bounce
Pushed down by bad days
Left to rise in good ones
Makes me think of being young
No matter what my face says
I was happy once
I can’t take all the back and forth
I just want to live free
This constant change is too much strain
Through it all I remain positive
Even though today’s a low day
One day I’ll be happy again
At least I know I’m not broken…
