I wish that I could talk to you
I wish that you could see
The new man that’s forming
Deep inside of me
A man of deep forgiveness
A man of deeper love
A man of little jealousy
A man to be proud of
A man of lesser anger
A man that wants to be
A man who loves you dearly
If only you could see

Up
Down
All around
I look to find
I hear no sound
You left a feeling
You left a smell
You left no trace
When we fell
I go to bed at night
I wonder what you do
I see the empty pillow
Where it should be you
I sit alone
Facing my life
The fan drones
I miss my wife
Changing I am
A new man I’ll be
Taking the time
I hope she sees
Bits
Pieces
Parts of me
I look inside
What do I see
I sit alone
Inside my room
As darkness gathers
As inside a tomb
My thoughts wander
Far and wide
To flee the emptiness
I have inside
I wonder why I do the things I do
I wonder why I do all I do for you
I want to wake in the mornings beside you
I want us to share our lives
I feel that time is slipping
Away from us oh so fast
I feel my Love is leaving
I need this thing to last
Why do I love you?
Why do I try?
Because the end reward
Money can never buy

Some people say we should quit
Some to stay the course
Some to cut our losses
Some to not beat a dead horse
Some may call us stupid
Some may call us nuts
Some may be supportive
When we get into ruts
My love is like an ocean
That stretches far and wide
I long to feel your body
Lying by my side
I want to feel you breath
Upon the top of my skin
A lonely lingering touch
Above the sensory din
I need to say I want you
I want to say I care
I really, very much love you
With my heart laid open, bare
