Revision

There’s a smile upon my face
To see you walking down the street.
The world around us disappears
When at the light we meet.
On my island of hope:
It’s just you and me.
A breath between us will
Let me be the girl you see.
But every time I’m close to you
There’s too much I can’t say
And I forget to tell you…
‘Cause you just walk away.
The nights are too long;
I’m cold here without you.
I grieve in my condition
Since there’s nothing left to do.
I just can’t find the words
To say I need you so.
I love you, but your back
Shows you just don’t want to know.
