Your giving me fear when I want friendship,
Your giving me lies when I only asked for the truth
Your giving me tears when I long not to be crying,
Your giving me freedom with no where to fly,
Your giving me food when I want you to hold me,
Your giving me more, when I beg it to stop,
Your giving me hope and stealing it from me, Your spiteful when enough is enough
Your giving me words, that won’t stop re-playing
Your giving me regret, with no space for change,
Your giving me sadness without comprehension, Your giving me humour for your use in vain.
Your giving me prayers that go undelivered, Your giving me moments that are never in motion,
Pressure without choice of haste or speed.
Your giving me relationships, when I’m not ready,
Your pushing me on, when I’m trying to pick myself up
Your giving me ultimatums, only you decipher
A pace - when I can’t keep up..
