Knowing all of you

“Everyday I watch you try to hide in plain sight

Pretending to be okay and telling me you’re alright

Trying to shine every time I stop by

Saying that you’re fine but I know that is a lie

Concealing feelings and keeping them oppressed

Believing I only like you when you’re at your best

But I want to know the reason behind your tears

What keeps you up at night, your doubts and your fears

Tell me what goes on in that beautiful mind

I will stay with you, regardless of what I find

You tell me you’re beyond repair

I say I don’t care, I beg you to share

But you don’t want me to see the side you label as dark

Leaving me with nothing but a question mark

A deep desire, a life long goal

Is for me to unravel your hidden soul

If only you would let me 

If only you would see

That I’ve cared for you from the very start

With everything I have and with all of my heart

And I just wanted to let you know

No matter how hard you push me away, I will never let you go”
