Analysis of Someone to care
What is wrong with me, that I am so unloved?
Am I too strong, too weak, closed off, unreachable?
Do I draw back, or do I push you away?
Too outspoken or too timid, speak too loud and not listen?
Have I been burned so bad that I am now fire shy.
I need someone to care, a touch, a sigh.
