STOP

Everyone’s pulling me in so many directions
Into the past
Where everything went wrong
And I was constantly waiting for the next disaster
Into the future
Where everything looks right
And I have to last long enough to see if it is
I’ve never wanted someone so badly
The way I NEED him astounds me
The ways he’s perfect for me too numerous
He’s what’s saving me
But there are those little moments
When I’m tired of being torn in two or three
Too many men fighting for my ownership
And I’d like to be cut out of the equation
But I want them all in my life
I wish they could forget the past
As easily as I do now
Living life on my own
In a place where no one knows me
No one to pull me this way and that
Getting away from them all
Never seemed quite so appealing
