You have known me strong <br />you have known me lucky <br />you have known me wealthy <br />and now I cannot tell you <br />I am weakened <br />I am unlucky <br />and I am miserable... <br /> <br />I cannot tell you <br />because it's my pride <br />....that tells me not to tell you. <br /> <br />The truth is <br />I need you to help me <br />but I just can't tell you <br />and I'm sure <br />I won't be telling you <br />...because it's my pride.<br /><br />Marites C.
