Breaking Point

Jen's Song

"Jen, can I show you something?" Justin asked softly, and sat at the edge of the bed, guitar in hand. Jennifer crawled to the edge of the bed with him and wrapped her arms around him from behind.

"What's up, sweetness?" she asked, and gave him a kiss on the neck.

"Nothing. I wanted to show you a song I wrote."

"What's it about?"

"You'll see."

Jennifer waited patiently as Justin adjusted the guitar on his lap and started strumming random chords.

Finally, he got himself into a rhythm and the chords started flowing together in a relaxing harmony. Jennifer closed her eyes as he started to sing.

"I've looked into her eyes

I've seen how they smiled,

I've seen how they cried

I see the way she twirls to the music

I feel the way she's got me paralyzed

This girl with the clear blue eyes

Has got me goin' crazy

She makes me lose my mind

This girl with the clear blue eyes

And the broken past

She still finds

Somethin' to smile about

I see the pain I've cause

Just wish she'd let me

Feel the pain of her loss

I see the way she smiles at me

I love the way she's got me paralyzed

This girl with the clear blue eyes

Has got me goin' crazy

She makes me lose my mind

This girl with the clear blue eyes

And the broken past

She still finds

Somethin' to smile about

This girl with the clear blue eyes

Has got my heart in her hands

She's got me nervous just by looking in her

This girl with the clear blue eyes

She makes me lose my mind, oh

I'm gonna give her the world

Just to make those eyes shine

This girl with the clear blue eyes

I love this girl with the clear blue eyes"

Jennifer's mouth gaped open in shock and Justin turned his head to look at her nervously.

"What'd you think?" he asked, and Jennifer couldn't speak. She was fighting just to breathe.

"Is that for me?" she whispered, silent tears falling from her eyes.

Justin gave a nervous chuckle. "Y-yeah it is." He said, and Jennifer threw her arms around him in a tight embrace. "So I'm guessing you liked it?"
