I will help you she said
I said stubbornly
Do not worry about me
And cried to myself in bed

I work to gain
What about the pain
You sincerely ask
What pain? I say, face as a mask

I love how you care for me
And I know you can see
My conflicted mind taking its toll
You deserve better than my troubled soul

Whenever you are talking with me
A smile dances on my face so freely
Happiness flooding my mind
How did I deserve someone this kind?

I feel like we are not meant to be
Since you are so much better than me
Life has given me a price to pay
Slowly pushing you away
