if you give me a chance....

Just a little something. It's a little rhymtastic for my taste... but hey, when it comes out in rhyme there's not much I can do.

Here we are my friend, weeping willows once again. So please just hold me close and let my tears slide away. There are far too many, this I know. But some day, I'll build my house on these tears I've made.

And one day I'll have a tree of my own. One that I've planted, watered, and grown. It will stand tall upon my experience, and the pain that I have shown. So let these tears water it, and please lets just watch it grow. While you hold me and don't let me go.

I like to dream of forever, this is foolish I know. For now I'm thankful we're together, and you hold me while I break down. They say we're bad together, you say we're meant to be. I just close my eyes and try to drown out the noise.

You're my knight with too much armor, and I'm your princess with a sour tongue. If you let your guard down, I promise to do the same. Both too scared to let go, and too spiteful to hold on. we're drowning each other.


I sit here without you now, knowing this is good for us. Suffering from a combination of boredom and loneliness. Well Suffering isn't quite the word. In a way I miss you, in another... I'm enjoying the time a part. I wonder how you are feeling?

Isn't it funny how sometimes a huge fight is what you need? Since the last fight I feel like you've actually been trying. Like you're reaching out again. The I love you's don't feel shallow now. I have hope. I just pray that it isn't a false hope. I try my damnedest to trust you completely. Everyone says that's stupid of me. But is it so stupid to trust. I mean worst case you destroy me. I can rebuild myself yet again. Are you really any more of a threat than anyone else on this planet?

I sit here back and forth. I know I love you. I still don't know for sure how you truly feel about me. I would hope the "love yous" outweigh the "I don'ts" I hope what you tell me is truth, and that everyone else is just wrong. I hope that I'm wrong.

So much hope, and only one I know. Well two. I do know you love me. I just don't know if it's enough for you to stay. I'm starting to wonder if it's enough for me to stay. I know I want to be with you! Possibly forever, who knows. I just hope that's enough.

You know what they say... Love is great, but it's really a matter of how much shit you can put up with.
