Recline On You
March 11, 2012
RECLINE on YOU
Too weak to cry
Too tired to talk
I keep getting burned
Each time I open my heart
Hurt so jagged
Disquiet so deep
To feel neglected
Makes it hard to see
Are you really able
To handle the truth
For a little while
Can I recline on you
Until I find the courage
To put the pieces back together
