(By SweetGirl)

In a room by myself-to stare at the walls

Not wanting to talk-when anyone calls.

I hear you walk in-you sit by my side

You tell me to talk-and not to hide.

I say "Nothing's wrong-just leave me alone"

I turn from tears-to solid stone.

He says...........................

"You're so impossible-you let yourself drown

Just let it go-put the Damage down."

At times,so cold-you know not to touch

Its hard to show-that I love you so much.

I build a wall-you cant climb over

You have no luck-with a 2-leaf-clover.

Thats been torn from the petals-and cant seem to grow

At times,frozen solid-by emotional snow.

He says.........................

"Let me make you laugh-let me be your clown

It won't be that hard-once you put the Damage down."

He buys me a dress-that,rejected-it lays

When the blizzard heads in-it always stays.

He gives me more love-than I can intake

My heart,in deep sleep-is starting to wake.

I put the dress on-and spray some perfume

And I start to smile-as I enter the room.

He says........................

"An Angel's face-that corrected the frown

You sure look pretty-when you put the Damage down."
