I Want To Tell You, But

There’s a hell of a lot going on inside my mind I wish I could tell you everything The way you always used to listen. I wish I could run to you and share all of it From my tiniest wins to my biggest falls I’m dying to hear just one line from you: “Say... I’m listening.” All these unsaid words They’re building up inside me Like a nuclear chain reaction, Each thought giving birth to a thousand emotions. I wish you were still my cadmium rod The one who could calm the storm Who kept me steady when everything inside was burning. Can you imagine how difficult it is For someone like me, A heart-on-sleeve kind of soul, To hold everything? To pick up the phone Only to put it right back down Because I remember You’re not there to hear it anymore.
