Its a game

I drove for miles and miles trying to find myself and found you

You gave me strength and hope for a life time

I can feel myself giving up, I’m giving up

So I say this time wont you save me

Mile after mile the voices louder and louder they call

For you only see the worst in me, sometimes I think it just lurks in me

I would say that I’m done with it all and done with you

 But here I am so take me as I am, for I’m just going to say that it works for me

I love who I am and what I shall be

When I start to give up, and I can feel myself giving up

I say this time wont you save me

Sometimes I think it just nurtures me, and to keep it all real it starts to hurt

I start to take a long ride and walk away

You say that if I leave I won’t survive without you

So take me for who I am and not who I was

It’s a joke it’s a game why am I still keeping score

I’m in pain, sometimes you make it so hard I can’t breathe

So I say this time wont you save me

Seeing between the lines

             Often in life we get so caught up in our own blind ambitions that we loose the ability to read between the lines. We get trapped in a paradox which gives us false hopes in the effects of the smoke and mirrors. What we truly want in our relationships is sincerity, compassion, honesty and respect. Rather than take the risk it gets disguised in that of a friendship and our guards remain up, for how can we truly have everything we want so easily. Nothing is always as it seems, but we keep pushing for that perfect partnership as the friendship grows. We want more but fear the unknown, Do I take a risk to the next level with the friend? or Do I play it safe and suppress my needs to never disturb what is? Friendships and Partnerships always walk a thin line, for in our friendships we get so close to one another. Often we share more with our friends than our partners because we have a different mindset for them, a different trust, a different bond,  and no judgement in regards to what we share.
