Where Do We Go From Here?

Where do we go from here?

I am standing in your shadow,

small as a child.

You were larger than life,

larger than my dreams.

You stretched out your hand-

you stretched it out to me.

Could you wash away the sadness?

Could you wash away these tears for me?

Its not like washing my hands,

You see the dirt just won't come off. 

Scared inside me.

Scared to see what I have been living.

Who am I?

Who  are you to make me feel  this?

Is this really what I needed?

Now that I am in it,

where do we go from here?

You  said you knew me.

I didn't know myself.

I was only asking you for love,

I didn't know it had a high price.

I didn't know it would come to this.
