And let out a sigh of relief
Because you'll never know
All I've done for you
Even if it hurt you
It was FOR you
My pain
---your gain
I was trying to save you
---could have saved you
from this bitter cold which bites us
---leaves me in the dust
I'll smile foryou
---Don't want to widen this lack of trust.
Even though it should be
Widened.
These secrets are too much to hold
Too much to bear on my naked back
Me, lying, outstretched
To warm up your space for when you get back
IF you get back
Because for now we cant put you back together again
Because you're holding the intructions
Behind your grinding teeth.
Hold your tongue, your words are poisin, and bring me to tears.
Don't. I want to hear it.
I want to know.
No matter how muffled your voice is
or mine.
It doesn't matter.
You'll feel better after this. |
