I am a strong girl
but I can't
be strong for too long
At times I want
to be weak
and all I want
is to be saved

come sit with me.

Come sit with me and let me talk
about my insecurities
Even if I haven't told you yet
if you just sit with me
you'll understand why
Come sit and talk about
compassion, trust and pity
come sit and not judge
I can judge myself and that is harsh enough
come sit with me and promise me
that you'll keep this secret
you'll seal it as a covenant
Come sit and tell me
That you know the difference
of when I'm afraid and needing comfort
and when I'm afraid and
needing you to not know that I am
Come sit and tell me
You'll just smile and walkaway
Not because you're cruel
But because you trust me enough
And you respect
me as a normal being
subject to other insecurities
like you do, too.
