I have always wondered
wondered how much one can give
how much affection one can dish out
how much can one do for another
I know now its a finite amount
I know that without anything in return
the pain of life will bear down on the soul
of this wondering I don't wonder anymore
you see giving without asking is the greatest thing
one can do
one can receive
one can share
you see giving without receiving
is the hardest thing to do
is the loneliest place to be
is a place no one should be
Of this I have wondered
Of this I know my limits
Of this the pain of life is too much
For no return
