Contradiction
I need your arms around me;
I need my space.
Want to be with you forever;
Slow down the pace.

I dream and think of beauty.
Ugly is what I am.
Could I find you out there?
While I'm here sitting back.

Thoughts constantly fighting.
Emotions empty; hollow.
Always wanting someone;
Alone is where I wallow.

I have seen what love can do.
And I am running far and fast
But I want love and to love
I'm standing still, yet it will pass.

Tell me that you love me;
Deep down it's me you hate
What did I do to cause this?
Or is my being alone my fate.

The outside I laugh
The inside I cry
I need to live
But I want to die...
