Sometimes

Sometimes I think you hate me because your love is so great…

The words don’t fall out;
It’s like were dining on empty plates,
Were on the ice with no skates

Sometimes you stay away too long
Your presence is in need;
It’s like were sailing with no maps,
Gone hiking with no compass

At times, you don’t show enough care;
It’s like were walking with nowhere to go,
Like were hunting with guns and no ammo

Sometimes I think you hate me, just because I’m here
Your love is too great and it’s all too *****
