The safe one

 

We are together

But apart

We love eachother

But with all your heart?

 

And when I hurt inside

You aren’t always there

And if you knew that I cried

Would you really care?

 

You care not for love and hours

No beauty or inner me

You don’t want whispers and flowers

But you do love me... physically

 

Should I love you, should I go

the safe one who’s not so shy.

But I will never let you know

No, you will never know why
