sometimes I feel that we
shouldn't be together.
nonsense, I know.
that would only be the easy way out.

sometimes I feel that we
are too broken together.
can we also be strong
or week together,
leaning to each other, while we'd be getting stronger?

I know I'm weak.
more what I am - I'm confused.
it hurts to watch you being hurt,
to be unsure of what to do.
what's the worst it this:
I see there's nothing I can do.
the feeling, that's the worst.
I hate it;
it hurts.
and sometimes it comes to me too overwhelmingly.

I know I'm strong.
I try to be.
the decision to be "the stronger one".
the idea: "one of us must be.
you need me to be strong".
and maybe you truly do.
but still being the one who hurts inside,
the one that doesn't show it.
I never show it anyway -
that I'm broken.
it comes so naturally from me anyway.
right?

what do I do with you darling;
I don't want to see you hurt.
I neither want to leave you.
I wish you'd be alright.
