Tone: Happy, thoughtful, confused, unsure
Date: July 31st, 2012
Intro: This took two days to writing because of my timing.
Tell me all the things you’ve done for me
Tell me what I need to know
I really want to see you smile
Like oh so long ago
It’s a few years since you’ve been happy
And I’m not too sure why
But all I know is that I see you
And the tears in your eyes.
I can tell from the look on your face
That you don’t want this anymore
Who else is there to turn to?
When no one can see those scars
The more I hear the yelling
The more I want to run
The more the arguments become more vague
I hate to hear it all but what else is there to do?
When there’s no one left to turn to.
Broken bonds,
Broken trust
A frown in need of smilin’
When all hope is lost
Why can’t I stop it?
I just want to see you smile again
In hopes of it being real
The laughter-it’s a habit
But is that all you manage to muster up
With all the pain that you go through?
Tell me all the things I need to know
All about you
All the little details that don’t show
Just tell me that it’s not fake
Tell me what is real
Tell me-
I know your deepest secrets
Even from-the ones you love
Tell me-all your deepest thoughts
Because I want to make that smile show
When there’s no one left to turn to
When all hope is lost
You’ll still have me
The one person you do trust
And with
Just those words
That. When there’s no one else to turn to you
You have us.
Conclusion: I see now that I wrote for assurance to tell myself that it’s alright. After all the shit we’ve gone through. Or I mean-I’ve gone through. Then this is my Atonement.
