I didn't plan on you
today
I thought I could just look
the other
way
and continue
to feel
free
for a minute there
I felt like I was just
me
I guess I didn't know
how to accept
that this is me
now
when the truth is
this has been me
I just didn't see it
somehow
It's not an everyday struggle
anymore
but some days
when I turn that knob
it's you
standing at my
door
and I want to slam it
and lock it up
tight
sometimes I can't
find the courage
to stand alone and
fight
and I wonder
if that's
okay
because there's just times
when I don't want
to cry
today
no, I don't want
to cry
today
I say
as the tears
start rolling
down
and my breathing
becomes
the only
sound
no, I didn't want
to cry
today
but if I let it out now
perhaps tomorrow
will be
a better
day
