Not For You
And I can’t believe how long I waited for you To come into my life It is a special dream That I walk alone in the dark But now I have a light to guide me Here and through I hold onto your hand But I didn’t understand I didn’t understand All the ways youContinue reading “Not For You”

Aimless
I feel so aimless Don’t know what this game is
