If Teddy Bears Could Talk


If teddy bears could talk My teddy could tell you a story or two He knows more about me than anyone else in this world He knows that I hug him tight when I go to sleep to feel secure because of my fears He knows the things I enjoyed but regret at the same time He knows that I don't cry unless I am alone in my room because I think tears are a sign of weakness He knows that I feel not so pretty and wish I looked different He knows that I miss my old best friend but I have too much pride to take that first step He could tell you that I am afraid to like the one guy who wants me because I think he's a liar and doesn't really think I'm pretty He could tell you that I'm only mean because of my own insecurities He could tell you that I laugh when I'm hurt so no one knows the truth He could tell you that I like guys who I know I have no chance with He knows that I don't dress up because I see no point He knows that I do my best in school because its the only place I feel special He knows that I like my religion but I don't like being forced into it He knows I feel bad about not practicing He understands me when I am not in a good mood He understands when I don't know why I act certain ways He understands that I don't like to be around lots of people who are smaller than me He understands when I feel like an outsider Teddy knows everything & sometimes I think he's the only one who cares If only Teddy could talk he could tell me that I would be ok
