Up for a climb
by Courtney
I don't know what's going on,
but there's something anyway.......
Words I can't say, and shit I can't do,
as I go throughout my day.
Thoughts of you go through my mind
every minute I'm awake,
Wondering just how long
this little game will take.
How long do we have to play it?
How long do I take the pain?
How long before I realize
you and I don't feel the same?
Do I waste my time and have some fun
or continue on my way?
Will I find someone else out there
who can take this pain away?
Do I deal with not knowing
if we will ever be
More than what we are right now,
whatever that may be?
I love those nights when we are close
and you take my breath away,
But can't stand the days when I wait to see
the next move that you'll play
I realize that you don't want
the same thing that I do,
But why can't you see the good thing
that's right in front of you?
People fear you because they don't see
the same man that I see,
But the question now that's in my mind,
are you the man for me?
What else do I have to do?
And what else can I be?
Is it my fault this isn't working,
should the blame be put on me?
A little advice that some wise man had,
and it made its way to me......
The best apples are at the top,
but you gotta climb the tree.....
Take a risk and reach for the top,
don't ever look back down,
Or you'll just get the rotten apples
that have fallen to the ground.
One last note, before I stop,
I say this, to you from me:
I DARE YOU
TO BE A REAL MAN
AND CLIMB THE TREE!
