Here We Go Again

Here we go again Down this road so dim Where I can see no end On this road no one wins Where were you tonight You claimed your mind was in flight But it seemed you wanted to pick a fight When I simply asked you to shed some light I could tell something was wrong Our normal rhythm and vibe was gone For your embrace I longed But to your thoughts tonight you belonged Communication is the key I’ve said this constantly But my anguish you don’t see You’re numb to my pleas Once again I’m left to figure out Your actions instill in me more doubt I pretend not to think about But inside I just want to shout; inside my heart pouts When I ask what’s wrong with you It’s out of genuine concern; it's true When you’re hurt remember I hurt too I just want to be here for you If you desire space Let me know; I will not chase My pride will remain in place I’m letting you know just in case I understand you’re discreet But look around; what do you see Look closer and in your life there’s me Please open up and let me see I want to trust you with my heart Don’t scare me away just as I start For my heart you are now a part Lay

A beautiful write trying to reassure someone you are there for them, hoping they will open up and share with you instead of shutting you out.. A piece many can relate to Lay.. Love Wilma
