If
you're lost you can look and you will find me
time after time
if
you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
time after time
- Time After Time, Cyndi Lauper
I don't care where I run. I don't care what time it is, or where I am or where you are. You have hurt me; leaving me. I know that you have to do what's best for everyone else; how you have to save the world from the evils of today. But can't you just once do something for me. I need to know that you care, that you really do love me and that you would do anything for me. I begin to feel the cold winds and harsh rain pelting down on me as soon as I think of you; it's truly amazing how when I feel like no one, only the thought of you can bring me back to life. I contemplate turning around; back to you. But my pride gets the better of me; how could I go back after that outburst? I slump against a tree, nowhere to go and no one to go to.
Then I feel your warm, strong and comforting hands wrap around me and I feel instantly warm. You have come to get me. And at that moment I realise that you are doing this for me; just as much as you are for everyone else. But you came and found me; came to me when I needed you most and that tells me more about you love than anything else.
