I Need You

I need Your shoulder Please reach for my hand I need someone to listen And truly understand The way I think and the way I feel How my life at times, seems so surreal I need to scream and I need to cry But I also need to be heard, but don't know why I'm usually so strong, unwilling to break But I fear that now, my foundation has started to shake I've been abused, misused and pushed around With very few, can I find common ground I've been lied to, cheated on, and really put down At times, in my own pity is where I drown My Faith is strong, and I do love Thee But these tests you throw at me are hard to conceive Why must I suffer so, to prove myself to You For if you don't know by now that my heart is true I don't see how any more tribulations could change your view I know that You love me and my sins are forgiven But the meaning of my life, from me, You keep hidden In a riddle unlike so many others Why couldn't You have made me like my sisters and brothers I wish I were shallow at times without doubt For then maybe I could live with my head in the clouds Maybe then it wouldn't be so painful to me To live my life of misery
