And you know that it kills me to watch you go.
Do you know how I long for your return?
And all day I dream of the reprieve of your embrace
On the long lonely sad days that so frequently imprison me
In the darkness that has recently settled on my soul
With icy fear clinging to my sleeves,
I hunger…no I starve for your warmth
I envision myself sobbing into your chest.
I envision myself sobbing into your chest.
I envision myself sobbing into your chest.
Over and over again I think it
I think if I could escape to you, you could free me.
And then you return
Why do I turn from you?
Why do I act so cold?
Afraid you will see my weakness and turn
Afraid you expect strength.
I do not have my own strength
If you see my weakness it will be multiplied.
And so again we go to our separate parts of the house
And I dream of your warmth, instead of asking for it
Too proud I guess, or stupid.
The coward I am.
My spirit starves while the feast lies at my feet.
