Do This

Folder: 
For My Truest Love

Putting aside me

Only to please you

But I still can't keep you happy

You disregard all I do

I don't want much

I know you know this

Just a compliment once in a while

A hug, a reassuring kiss

Everyday

My life is all about yours

I subconsciously put all my own needs

On silent and ignore

My only friend

I know I don't need anyone else

But do you think you can be about me sometimes

Rather than yourself?

I would do anything

Just to see you smile

Whether it be cook your favorite food

Or rub your back for a while

But what's the point when I myself frown?

And everyday

My only duty is to be down

I have to question

Is it really what you claim

Cause when I have time to think

It feels like a game

I put my all into us

Hoping that you see

That all I want at this point in my life

Is you and me

I'ma be honest

Aint nothin in this world

That I want more

Than to be your girl

You are my breath

You seem to keep me breathing

But when you have nothin nice to say to me

You have my heart bleeding

In my mind

I only see you

I've told you before

You- to me- are the truth

I don't want to repeat this shit

Like a hook

But you are my poetry

You write my book

All I ask

Is for your sincerity

You aint gotta stop what you do

Or say you wanna marry me

I only want mutuality

I want you to feel the same

And stop continuously

Putting my heart through pain
