Mr K
You look me straight in the eyes
You ask me “Is there something wrong?”
I look at you straight in the eyes
And say, “No there isn’t”
You know better
You “Bull” me
I tell you, “You pulled me in here”
You look at me
The first time I notice that someone really cares
I get you frustrated
You turn in your chair
Then I tell you what really bothers me
Your heart breaks
You force on me, what really is right
I snap back at you
You care so much about me you take it
After you called, I get very mad, yet I know; now I am being help
Now I look at you, and admire you greatly
I can tell that you only did what was best for me
So now we can have fun
But you know I need help
I tell you “You aren’t helping me”
That puts a hole
Yet you keep at it, you keep knocking, you keep reaching
I keep changing, making it harder, keep building a wall
But you don’t stop, what you do is accelerate
You never have stopped, and never will
And that’s why I greatly admire you
Cause you don’t give up on me, even through the hard times
“Keep it up”, I say
And you just sit and smile
