I could keep asking
But you'd keep ignoring
And then you would tell me
There is too much pressure
I would have whispered I love you
But you refused to hear
Anytime I spoke
I would have told you I need you
But you'd turn in fear
Anytime I'd approach
I cannot reach you
I cannot find you
When you tell me
You are drowning
I worry
And don't want to appear
The beggar
Forgive me
I am unable
To make you
Understand
That I cannot deliver
Salvation
Or pleasure
So reach out for me
I will take your hand
Speak loudly or softly
I will listen
But I am alone
I am just a flawed man
And I cannot wait forever
