XI.XII.VII.Potential

What we've got here has potential to be legendary

But I need from you something revolutionary

For you at least - I need you to open up

And talk to me like we've got trust.

Don't know why you hide everything;

If I'm quite honest it's hindering

How I can feel about you - can't give you my all

'Til I feel like you're gonna play ball.

'Cause there's two of us in this relationship

And to be quite frank with you it's making me sick

To feel like I'm on the outside

And you don't trust me enough to confide

What it is that's bothering you -

And you're really f*****g distant too.

You say you love me and I believe you

But you've got to SHOW me how you feel too.

Word's arent enough - they never will be

What do I have to do to help you see

I need you to show your love and your trust

By at least trying to open up.

'Cause I do love you, but how far can we get,

When you trust me about as much as if we just met?

Author's Note

Kind of a rant that turned into a poem..not pretending it's got any worth in it, but it does have a couple of cool rhymes. :p
