Ever loved someone so fiercely that it made you want to weep?
You’d hang on every smile. Their touch could make your stomach leap.
Understanding so profoundly how a need could run so deep.

Ever cried so hard but silently so people never see?
Choking down the feelings, of a heart that’s lost at sea.
Letting go of everything that meant anything to me.

Ever stood with complete strangers with a smile upon your face?
Thinking that the world around you can’t be such a hostile place.
Knowing that out there, somewhere, is a love they won’t replace.

Ever stopped to count upon the fingers of one hand
A tally of the people who have really touched your soul
And still had fingers left?
