I'm so tired of being strong

I just want to break down.

I want someone to pick up my pieces,

Put me back and shower me with hugs and kisses.

I want somebody to notice I'm broken,

I want them to understand

I want a shoulder to cry on;

A person I don't have to explain anything to.

This time, I want them to help me,

I want them to support and cheer me.

I want them to be there, through the ups and downs

I want them to never leave me;

For once, I someone to see through my façade,

I want them to see my breaking down and still love me.

I want to let down the guards and break down the walls,

I want to be really happy, not just pretending to be.

I want to throw my head back in the wind and be free,

I want to hear the birds chirping and the lake water rippling,

I want to see the sunsets and the sunrises,

I want to hear the waves crashing on the shore, savor every feeling.

I want to hear the echoes bouncing off the mountains,

I want to live, to love, to hear my blood thumping in my ears.

I want to live a life I choose,

I want to be surrounded by love,

Drowning in satisfaction,

Overwhelmed with success,

Nose deep in luxury,

And most importantly, 

I want to be bursting with happiness.
