Strength

I know I'm supposed to be the strong one.
I know that you've been through a lot.
I know you need me to be strong for you, Lettuce.
But, would you still like me if I couldn't?

If I couldn't be strong right now;
If I broke down,
Would you walk away from me?
Would you let go and leave?

I know people who would do that.
I don't know wether you would or not.
I just, I can't be the strong one all the time.

I'm not asking you to be ok all the time.
I know that's impossible.
I'm just asking that you be there for me.
Just asking that you'll be there when I'm not ok.

You see, I jut lost my grandmother,
And not even a year ago my grandfather died.
I got in a serious car wreck,
I've had friends threaten suicide,
And even those who have run away.

I promise I won't leave you,
But will you promise the same thing?
Will you still be there after I break?
Will you promise to stay?

Even if you never read this, Lettuce,
Will you be my support?
And if you're reading this, Nev or Isa or Faith or Alex, please, know...
I need y'all too.
I don't just need Lettuce.

I love you all.
All five of you mentioned.
I love you.

Hey guys. My grandmother just passed away. We were expecting it, but it's still hard, you know. I just, if any of the people mentioned read this, please, help me. Help me get through this. I love you all.
