Fragile
How did you get to the state
where you're sitting here
your happiness in wait
for a response
that is not going to take place
How did you lose your independence
and become such a needy one
waiting for the call
to your number
which he never intended ring
Why did you put yourself
in the hands of another
who only makes you frown
why give up your smiles
for one who does not want you around
