Caring
tired
mentally and physically
i sit here too tired to think
too tired to try
but never too tired to care
can a person care too much?
i think that they can
i know i have
i don't want to stop caring
i shouldn't have to
caring is a part of who i am
but by caring i get hurt
i get sucked in
i get close
closeness involves emotions
emotions cause pain
and pain hurts
i don't want to hurt anymore
i want to care for someone special
i want to be cared by from someone special
to cuddle up to them when i am tired
to know they are there for me
appreciating my care
appreciating me
