• Unbreakable…

   

  

  I’ve always stood on my own

  Fought through the battles that came my way

  Over and over I picked myself up

  And did my best to hold my head high

  I’ve been the rock others could lean upon

  I’ve tried to be the voice of reason for others to hear

  And fought to champion those who were weaker than me

  I’ve always said you can never depend on others

  You only have yourself to blame

  Yet now here I am

  Embattled and scarred

  Still trying my best to stand on my own

  But I find myself weaker than before

  With endless tears that flow as I sit alone

  Waiting and hoping for someone to come along

  Someone who can remind me how strong I am

  To help me see

  To find the person that once was me

  Is it a crime to want a small part of what you craved

  To feel the warmth of arms around me

  I’m not infallible

  I am human just like you

  I bleed

  I cry

  So why can’t I know how it is to feel

  Why am I denied the thing that I gave so freely

  For just one night I want to feel safe enough to cry

  To be held tight and told I will be alright

  Even though I know only I can make it through this night alone

  I can’t stop wishing for the moment when I no longer pretend

  To be the one who is unbreakable

  I just want to let down my guard

  And know what it is like to spend just one night safe in your arms
