Waiting Imperfectly

We once clashed and yet flowed,

able to bring love into each other's lives.

Here, I await your slumber each day 

just to say Hello, I love you.

Here, I ponder if you're going through

a darkness without telling me.

Closed off and guarded,

you keep me on my toes of wonder.

It's been years and I still feel left

alone and crazed.

I want to be close even though

I have hurt you before.

Each day, I am in pain

more and more.

I thought you were suppose to ease it,

not be the cause of my tears...
