START LOVING ME FOR ME

Posted By: SARA JOY EDGEMON on September 09, 2009

SOMETIMES SHADOWS BRINGS THE FEARS
LIGHTNING FLASHING ALL YOUR YEARS
BRINGING CHILLS OF STORIES UNTOLD
NOTHING SOLD, BUT YOUR SOUL

AND NO ONE HEARS, HURT FELT CRIES
SUFFOCATING OVER LIES
LOST IN WHYS, OF THINGS YOU SEE

WONDERING WHO’S LOVING ME, FOR ME

WALKING ALONE IN THE DARK
BANDAGES WRAP A BROKEN HEART
JUDGING FACES CAUSE A BREEZE
WANTING TO SHAKE YOU AT THE KNEES

SMILES HIDING WHO THEY ARE
BLENDING LIKE A SKY OF STARS
BUT LIKE CLOUDS FORMING BEFORE A STORM
SIGNS APPEAR, SO YOU’RE FOREWARNED

FEELING SOMETHING ISN’T RIGHT
WONDERING WHY IT’S ALWAYS A FIGHT
WONDER WHEN YOU CAN BELIEVE
SOMEONE’S LOVING ME, FOR ME

TAKING AWAY MATERIAL TREASURES
IT’S PERSONALITIES THAT LAST FOREVER
NEVER COSTING, WITH HELPING HANDS
WITH OPEN HEARTS THAT UNDERSTAND

BUT SOMETIMES WE’RE CRUCIFIED
BECAUSE OF THE UNKNOWN
WALKING THROUGH A CROWD OF STONES
CHANGING FACES IN THE MIRROR
BEATEN BY THE THINGS WE HEAR

TELL ME WHO CHOSE YOU TO POINT
AND WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE, HOW DO YOU KNOW
BECAUSE IF YOUR PATH IS THE ONLY WAY
HOW WILL YOU CONTINUE TO GROW

I WON’T SORROW, UNTRUE FRIENDSHIPS
AND I WILL NOT BE TORCHED, BY WHO THEY CAN’T SEE
BUT I WONDER IF THEY WILL EVER STOP JUDGING
AND START LOVING ME, FOR ME
