Give Me A Try

You say you don't want to hurt him You say that's the reason why But if you would just give me a try You are the one who brought it up So I know deep down you want to So if you would make this wish come true I swear you won't regret it You say you don't want to hurt him That's your only reason why But if you would just give me a try Let's not call it a "fling" Although we've had one once before Let's stay together and make this so much more How do you know I'm not better than him How do you know we're not soul mates How do you know its not our fate How do you know we weren't meant to be Let's get together and then we'll see You say you don't want to hurt him You say that's the reason why But if you would just give me a try You decided not to do it It would hurt him way too much But now I'm the one whose hurting And you will be too When you realize I was meant for you In the end it'll be you and me You say you don't want to hurt him You say that's the reason why But if you would just give me a tryI wrote this poem November 24, 2000.
