I’ve always been the glue that keeps it all together
The first one to make a call
And not talk about the weather
The one that gives in
To stop all the fighting
Pouring my heart out
With tears as I’m writing
All the things I didn’t say
It hurt biting my tongue
People don’t really listen
I learned when I was young.
My words are too real
Too raw with emotion
They bruise, cut and scar
Destroying the notion
All the times I was silent
Or Didn’t say a word
Your every action and nuance
Was profoundly heard.
All the times you said
“I’ve got your back”
My shadow is there
But where are you at?
