please don’t ask me how i am
cause i’m scared that i might cry
all i really need is a hug
and i don’t want to have to lie
i'll try and smile, pretend i’m fine
but inside i’m breaking apart
my stiff upper lip will tremble and quiver
as the tears spill from my heart
please don’t ask me how i am
i’m not good and i need some space
i don’t want you to see the lines
that my tears have left upon my face
i’ll pretend i’m fine and try to smile
as i slowly crumble deep inside
and with pieces still falling around me
i will find somewhere to hide

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"
