It’s always about you, lost in your plight,
The reasons you can’t show up are the shadows of night.
Each time I reach out, it’s your struggles on display,
But what about my heart? Where do I lay?

You say you had a bad day, and I hear you sigh,
Yet in the silence, I wonder, don’t I also cry?
We both wear our burdens, yet we drift apart,
In this dance of our feelings, where’s the start?

let’s strip away the layers and walls,
Let’s talk about feelings, the rise and the falls.
For all those moments when you weren’t around,
I need you to listen, to hear the lost sound.

Can we open the door to the truths that we hide?
In the depths of our hearts, where we both feel deprived.
For love isn’t just sunshine; it’s storms that we must endure,
It’s the laughter, the tears, and the solace we crave.

let’s talk about feelings, let’s share what we feel,
In the quiet of the night, let’s finally heal.
For in sharing our struggles, we will find our way through,
Together, my love, just me and you.
