Fix It
I long for … I need so … the comforting sooth
You’d provide in our relationships’ youth
But time and indifference have eroded away
The warmth and caring you used to display.
It’s not you don’t love me, I know that you do
But you have so changed, and … so have I, too.
We’ve grown apart … our interests have waned
Our relationship troubled, our interface strained
We used to hold hands … we used to go dance
Things we’d do … would build and enhance,
Our life together with our future to build …
But … being enthused was long ago chilled.
Please, Dear, help me rekindle the thrill
Of our youthful years, and then we’ll instill
A rebirth of caring of being involved
To enjoy indifferences being dissolved
We’ve conquered disease; we’ve beat down wrongs;
We’ve cried our tears; we’ve sung our songs
There’s nothing together which we cannot do
Please, once more, let’s be: Me … with … You.
