There's Always a 'But'

     I cried, but there were no tears

    I screamed, but I had no fears.

     I bled, but there was no wound

    I was full, but I ate no food.

     I couldn't see, but my eyes were open

    I fell, but I was still standin'.

     I was lost, but I was given te directions

    I didn't know, but I was given the lessons.

     I spoke, but my mouth was closed

    I walked, but my body froze.

     I sang, but my voice squeaked

    I inhaled, but I couldn't breathe.

     I worried, but what about?

    I was ok, but I broke down.

     I saw you, but only in my dreams

    I want you, but I can't, it seems.

     I felt the wind blow, but there was no breeze

    I got help, but I still begged "PLEASE!!"

     I loved him, but he didn't feel the same

    I wanted him, but now I live in shame....
