reason why

take my bed, more than half
steal my covers, i'll be alright

cook what you like, leave the dishes for me
turn my favorite shirt pink, roll your eyes when i cry

stay out too late, forget to call
drink to much, save "i'm sorrys" for the morn

but hold my hand, listen to my heart beat
hug me for no reason, kiss me goodnight

let me believe my butterflies
let m
e be a girl sometimes

lend me your words, let them pray for us
give me your song, let it play for us

i can't promise i wont hurt you, but i promise i'll try
let me be your reason why

Just because I wrote it doesn't mean it's biographical, madre!

I love your words...please use your gift to write something about the food and family we experience at "the farm", however we might have to wait until we have experienced it AGAIN!
Seriously, beautiful!
