All I ever wanted was a little bit of guidance,
All you ever gave me was your complete and deafening silence,
All I ever wanted were my feet upon a track,
All you ever gave me were my eyes’ upon your back,
All you ever told me were the word’s you left unspoken,
All I ever wanted was to feel I wasn’t broken,
All I ever gave you was my love and my devotion,
All you ever gave me was a face with no emotion
All I ever wanted was your hand’s to show me how
All I ever prayed for was a love that I know now
Was never there somehow,
All I ever wanted was a place to house my soul
All I ever dreamed of was my spirit to be whole
All I ever longed for was a place to rest my head
All you ever gave me was a hard road up ahead
A cross to bear instead
A scary little bed
The word’s you never said,
The book you never read,
A desire to be dead.
But, I chose to live on instead.
AMEN~
