what do I owe to be loved walking in the cold thinking of knocked on your door, you put me on the floor tossing me a pillow to soften the blows taken so long ago you asked me "what I came here for"? I scratch my head really I don't know I do know you don't want me around too many shades of being down, I know I said that, I always say "I'll pay you back" knowing that your kind of kindness, was always an act, truth is, I meant that I have not been able to get up off the tracks long enough to standup since I told you that, even though my life has been ripped yes indeed, please believe I am torn, I am still worth fighting for, I did not come here to fight, don't want to war with you about past issues, I just want to know one thing... what do I owe to be loved

This is deep. You owe yourself a receipt; given or received. And yet, Love is free--a gift given and received. The only thing the Old Man can tell you is that you are owe and are owed loved. Thanks for having me remember this too! Peace and Love, Son. mlowe5
