This Is Me

When you walked into my life
You made me feel so right
I believed in all your love
But you started holding on too tight

I don't like pretending for you
Keeping track of the lies is too hard to do

Oh baby let me breath
Love me or set me free
I don't want you to think you know what I should be
I'm just waiting for you to see
This is me, this is me

If you want to stay by my side
You're gonna have to change your mind
I'm not asking for you to be my prince
Why can't you see my beauty inside

Baby if that's just too hard to do
Then I guess I'm sorry
Not for me but for you

Oh baby let me breath
Love me or set me free
I don't want you to think you know what I should be
I'm just waiting for you to see
This is me, this is me

If you could take a minute
Try to believe
I swear
You'd see me shine

Can't you see that
This is me

Oh baby let me breath
Love me or set me free

Oh baby let me breath
Love me or set me free
I don't want you to think you know what I should be
I'm just waiting for you to see
This is me

Oh baby let me breath
Love me or set me free
I don't want you to think you know what I should be
I'm just waiting for you to see
This is me

All I Am

Who do you think you see
when you look at me?
Is it somebody strong?
Somebody you could admire?

And who do you think i am
when i take your hand?
Are you counting on me
to fill your dreams and your desires?

Well, all i am is lonely just like you
All i want to do is have one dream come true
All i am is handing you my heart
and hoping to be part of you

Who do you think you are
standing in the dark?
Are you waiting for me?
Why can't i reach you from here?

And how do i get to you
wont you let me through
Don't you think maybe we
have something special to be shared?

The ABC's of friendship

Accepts you as you are
Believes in "you"
Calls you just to say "hi"
Doesn't give up on you
Envisions the whole of you (even the unfinished parts)
Forgives your mistakes
Gives unconditionally
Helps you
Invites you over
Just "be" with you
Keeps you close at heart
Loves you for who you are
Makes a difference in your life
Never judges
Offers supports
Picks you up
Quiets your fears
Raises your spirits
Says nice things about you
Tells you the truth when you need to hear it
Understands you
Values you
Walks beside you
X-plain things you don't understand
Yells when you won't listen
Zaps you back to reality
