Author's Note: Hi everyone! Normally I don't write fanfiction for Tamora Pierce's books, but I had kind of been thinking about Alanna and George while I was writing it. I wrote this to be kind of like song lyrics, but it can just be poetry too. Please read and review!!!!!!!!!!!!

Always Human

She tells him she needs no one

That she's better off alone

But then why does she still suffer

Fighting battles on her own?

She claims she doesn't need his love

Yet she is only human

Yes, she is always human

And still does need his love

She has a broken heart

Shattered just like glass

And she won't give a part

Cause her hurt has never passed

This boy wants to save her

But she takes care of herself

He's her knight-in-shining armor

Left up on the shelf

She claims she doesn't need his love

Yet she is only human

Yes, she is always human

And still does need his love

I claim that I don't need his love

Yet I am only human

Yes, I am always human

And I still need his love
