Ridgerunner's blog: "someone like you"

i keep trying to write a poem, but the tears get in the way
i ask you fair questions, but you never know what to say
i know you know the painful answers, but are reluctant to share
are you afraid to hurt me, is there a part of you that may care?
or do you still need me, taking care of things while you're away?
i hope its much more than that, and not just a game you play.
i want you to show you think of me, not ignore me and cause doubt
with your help we can control this. thats what being together is about
please dont keep me hanging to hope just till your trip is through
my feelings are faithful and true. im going through this all just for you
the pain being caused is real, the emotional wounds are deep
where did my best friend go? the loving woman i want to keep?
im hoping for a change. that something causes a spark in your heart
that you can show me how much you want me, while we are apart
i know i got very jealous, and that you seen this as totally wrong
i hope we can survive this trip. and be right where we belong
