Have You Ever...

Have you ever wanted something
but what, you weren't sure
Longing to be touched - 

But not until the cure
Have you longed for one to hold you

to love you through your tears
But, couldn't bring yourself to cry,
concealing all your fears
Do you ever dream of being happy
fulfilling all your dreams
Still, trembling, at the truth
and how devastating it seams
Is there a yearning deep inside and 
all you want is to understand?
Why someone has really hurt you
why its hard to take a stand
to look yourself in the eye
Without feeling pain and guilt
but not knowing why?
Do you avoid contact
with that person in the mirror
Forcing strong emotions away 
reinforcing loneliness and fear
Not on purpose, do you feel
You've sabotaged your own life
Like you and happiness are opposites
elusive and full of strife
Did you ever want someone to hold you
and never let you go
Someone to say, "I love you"
even with everything they know
Someone you can trust - to say you are beautiful
or just someone you can trust
To be looked like you're a daughter of God
not dirt, or an object of lust
When someone has something very 
important to you to say
Do you wish they'd just shut up and listen
or simply go away
Do you wanna be better

then you really think you are
To finally cut the umbilical chord

catch at last, you wishing star
Have you ever felt you were hopeless
living a horrific night terror
Hating all the injustice,
but knowing 
she deserves it, her in the mirror
Have you ever just had a whole lot 
of nothing to say
Do you wish you could just stop your heart
and it would all just go away?
