Hear Me
What are you seeing
in your far away gaze
No sensitivity to your surroundings
Awash in a haze
Where are your thoughts
a broken heart never to mend
contentment in no way to feign
nor to even pretend
so are you so lost and alone
are you to self absorbed to see
that someone else cares about you
and that someone is me
to you I am but a companion
with a shoulder to cry on
someone who will listen
someone to rely on
but your broken heart is to fixated
and your weary brain to burdened with pain
to recognize I can become your true lover
and forever remain
for that far away gaze
is the exact same thing I incontestably do
every time I am alone
and my thoughts turn to you
may these words bring you solace
may you trust once again
I have so much love to bestow you
And I am far more than a friend
