Me and You

As I sit here thinking about Well about all the things you say But never do. But I love you. So I sit Time after time Life after life Feeling less human And more animated. Color me to beautiful again In your sight. Not to be set aside. You always let me go But I love you. And I need you. Not to be my knight in armor. Just to be mine. But you love me? Only when I'm still. Where you go I wait. Where you sit I stand. Where you sleep I guard. And when you fall I carry. So you love me... Where does that love take you? Or me? Am I ever going to be Just me? Or us? Just you? Or us? Can you just see outside These walls of glass? Too thick to break And too tall to climb. If only you cared about you, About life. You live every moment in yesterday. And the sadness takes you away. Away from here And there From us And them From you And me Please come to me Please look at me And try to see YOU in my love. My flesh My song I see you torn in pieces Left about and scattered With no regard for you. But I see you as no one can My soul hears your cry And weeps with you.
