Array ( [sid] => 5426 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Break It To You Gently [time] => 2002-10-22 15:00:00 [hometext] => This poem (or song) desperately needs some work. I am not crazy about the ending, but the topic I think is good enough to try to fix it - Any suggestions? [bodytext] =>
It’s been so long, I don’t know where to start
Over the years, you surely left your mark on me-
And it’s breaking my heart that I have to let you down so easily
When I’d rather show you every scar and leave you standing there,
Screaming out my name in agony, I want to hurt you the way that
you hurt me-
But I’m gonna break it to you gently…..

You held a broken woman, long enough in your hands
To give her will to fly, you gave me the strength to stand
And you dropped me way too far down, when finally I rose above
the ground.
I will thank you for my pain, it makes me stronger everyday,
That is how I can look at you, in spite of all that you can’t see,
I’m gonna break it to you gently.

As for my heart, I can feel it’s on the mend
Since I can choose not to let you in
But still there is so far to go, out here alone
With all you put me through
Seems reality pains us both, I was your host
Into a helluva different game,
But in the end it’s all the same – nothings changed
You never could see,
So I’m gonna break it to you gently…..
