I Can’t Talk To You

I can’t talk to you
So I write instead
The words I want to say
Swimming around in my head
I wish that I was stronger
I wish I could move on
I wish you loved me longer
Before your love was gone
I wish that I could tell you
I wish I could see your face
I with that this was over
Your need for time and space
I wish we could be together
Like we were back then
Together forever
Together, more than friends
But I can’t talk to you now
It hurts me way too bad
What used to make me happy
Now only makes me sad
Because I love you more
It feels like your love’s a chore
The feelings that you have
Are different than before
I can’t talk to you
Because you don’t talk to me
Conversations are one-sided
In this dance, I am the lead
I want you to reach out to me
I want to believe
That as much as I want you
That’s how much you want me.
I can’t talk to you
So I write instead
The words I want to say
Swimming around in my head
I wish that I was stronger
I wish I could move on
I wish you loved me longer
Before your love was gone…
