One and Only

It is true I write about you
In my journal every day or two.
But this present with your ex
Is getting way too complex.
I am almost to the stage
Where there comes a last page.
It is really getting quite hard
In hand, I’ve a single card.
I don’t want to lay it down
But lately all you do is frown.
Is it that I am so dang bad
You want to have what you had.
All I can do is make a promise
You are the only one I kiss.
I want it to be you and me
Without the number three!
I keep thinking I’m not the one
But I don’t want us to be done.
Maybe I am just always wrong
Please babe, show me we belong.

Will We Work

It feels like this is a game you like to play
I really do want to  believe what you say.
I don’t know if I am just not good enough
Maybe all this is supposed to make me tough.

Sometimes I just sit and think about everything
Listening to the love songs that people sing.
Right now I am very confused about us
I don’t want our relationship to end in a fuss.

It is true that I feel comfort when held by you
In my heart there is something left for you to do.
Please stop and think about what you are feeling
And whether or not your heart is through healing.

I have told you before that I’m not done mending
To say I don’t have feelings for you, I’d be pretending.
You tried to get me to promise, over you, not to cry
But yet I said I could not , I just continue to try.
