You tell me-
your deepest sins,
how you feel,
and everything I want to hear.
I wish-
I could tell you
everything I love,
everything I've always feared.
I wish-
I could tell you
precisely
what you're dying to know.
I wish-
I could open up
and let you
into my soul.
I wish-
I could let you see
who I am, who I was,
and who I long to be.
Alas,
I have no way
of telling you what I feel-
can't you see?
But even if
I long for this,
I have no way
of saying what I want to say.
