are you going to change
or do u expect me to.
are you goint to try
or do i have to give in to you

why can't you show u care
and not do things that hurt me
why can't we speak like lovers
why do you have to disagree

i try and do the things u want
i try not to hurt you at all
i just wanna make you happy
im almost at ur beaconing call

but when are u there for me
you don't wanna see me cry
you don't wanna know my pain
how do i know ur love is not a lie

how can u understand me
when u know nothing of who i am inside
how can u expect things to work
when u don't care what tears i've cried?

i'll give you all my love
i'll give all the support i can
but i need to recieve some back
maybe then my heart would mend

how can you tell me not to do that
and then you go and do the same thing
i don't think it's very fair
what happiness do ultimatiums bring?

maybe you're too young for me
maybe u think ur too good for me
maybe we're wasting our time
maybe it's just not meant to be

i don't want to fear us speaking
wondering if your gonna say we're thru
i don't want any of this stuff
i only want to love you

i want us to both be happy
im not out to win any game
it's my heart that im risking here
i love you and i want u to feel the same

Kellie
It seems you looked deep inside of yourself and a present or recent relationship and came up with this very expressive jewel. Excellently penned. Once I started, I could not wait to read the ending. It flowed like a little short story.
