Why

When will I see you again
Underneath the pain we feel
We both need to be loved
If I could see you again
Our embrace could seal anything
Why are you so scared
to let someone love you
I'm not perfect
but in this world who is
Look around and come to me
I don't have the answers
but I know where I want to be
do you remember
the way you felt as we talked
I know I remember
the thoughts I had as you walked away
do you remember
conversations we had
I gave space so you could breathe
I kept my distance so you would be free
I often think about when we said goodbye
and I hope to see you again
If I had our goodbye to do over again
I would have been different
Had I understood what I felt
I wouldn't ask myself why
I am willing to take a risk
more than sitting in a restaurant
I won't ever go away
and I want you to know why
