I wish I could erase the pain
The heartache I have brought
The lack of trust you have in me
The anger I have wrought
I want to say I’m sorry
I know it feels so trite
I need to find a balance
With which to make it right
I regret the feelings that you have
Inadequate are not you
Inadequate though I may be
Remove this thought I must do
The dreams we have together
Can still by us be found
Hopes that have bound us
Should not become unwound
I need to say I love you
Because it’s how I feel
I wish that you could feel the same
But only time will heal
I long to hold you close
Deep into the night
I know that this may not be
Until I make it right
I find myself so far adrift
I don’t know what to do
All I hope and all I pray
Is that I can be with you
