If She Was Mine

let me see

don't worry

it's nothing

i'm fine.

a ship sinks into the ocean

overcome with water

filled to the brim

it drowns

with no one to care about it.

a bird gets lost

far from it's flock

thought they were headed north

but now they're a thousand miles away

and he's alone.

i am here.

i can care.

i do care.

maybe too much.

i care with everything inside of me.

when you tell me not to worry,

my ship begins to sink,

because i want to keep yours floating.

you are not alone.

i can be here.

i am here.

maybe too often.

i am here forever,

i am here for you.

i am here for everything.

for your highs,

for your not so highs.

i am here because i want to be.

you say you are okay.

as long as you are okay,

i am okay.

but if you're not okay,

you don't have to break down your walls.

i hope one day you will, for me.

but you don't have to unlock the door.

i understand.

but please,

if you're not okay,

open up a window.

you don't have to let me in,

but please, let me see.
