I don't want you to pity me,
When you finally glance my way.
Don't say you understand,
And raise your hand, to wipe my tears away.
I don't want sympathy, not now, not ever.
Not from you, whose heart I tryed to capture.
I don't want to want you..
Not after I've come to my sences.
I don't want to throw caution to the wind,
No, not again.
Theres a false sence of sincerety in your touch,
something I've longed to feel..
But I'm plunged head first, hurting, remebering,
This can't possibly be real.
Why do you choose to see my tears now?
After they've long fallen,
why do you want me now,
after the wounds have healed over.
I don't want your pity.
I don't want to believe..
How could you want me?

Lexy~
I felt this...every bit of it.
You've expressed the emotions very well.
Nicely done.

Wow..very well written you did a great job getting your emotions out there. I liked it a lot...: : tough situation

Standing on the edge of the world
Now I don’t want you to catch me
I want you to let me
Stand up here and walk on my own
