Just lean on me

 

Sweet Spunky So many things to say 

I want to wrap you up keep you warm and show you the good things in this world

I want this much for you, I want you to know peace, and safety and all the love 

Love that you never imagined even existed 

You have lived a thousand lifetimes in your one little life

you have known life's greatest losses, in 13 short years

I would take it all for you in a single split second, but I can't

I can't make it all go away

please just lean on me , lean and know that I will not let you fall.

So careful of your feelings, because I understand them all

Your feelings deserve to be respected, and honored

I know you are afraid , I know that people have not been kind 

I know that you are ashamed, you are broken and battered but you are so much more than that

You are worth more than the memories and pictures that play in your head

I know that there are things you can never forget, I know

I know that the pictures repeat, the more you get them out 

the less power they  will have  to haunt you

Neither of us can do it on our own.  Remember I am you and you are me.

I don't understand how it all works,  you have carried me for years, and I have carried you

lighten the load and believe in the good things and the good people that 

are around us today

Lets do it together, I need you

You are a part of me that is strong and brave

I would not have survived without you

Now, it's my turn to let you rest.

We believe we are each alone and that couldn't be further from the truth

I need you to know, I have to move forward.  I have to keep going  

I can finally see good things ahead and I want you to experience them with me 

I want you to laugh, I want you to smell the flowers and feel the breeze

you have missed out on each and every life experience that a girl is supposed to have

I don't want to miss anymore,  and to do that you have to trust and just reach out

Jump on that bridge, run To me and never look back 

Those things can never hurt you again

You forget that you survived, 

there is no need to figure things out or to prove those things happened

You are believed, 

together we are going to burn that bridge and truly live

We have to do this together; I am not willing to leave you where you are

but I am tired of the fighting, tired of begging and pleading 

It's time. 

You have to trust me.  

Just lean on me and I will catch you.  I will catch you. There is no other option.
