if i told you the truest truth i know,
would you believe me?
would you believe me when i say
your voice puts me at peace
your presence calms me
your embrace is the safest place i have known
would you believe me?
would you believe my truth?
would you believe my truth even when our truths are not the same?
i just want to sit down beside you and quietly exist as we do
but you're leaving
you're leaving me
you're leaving us
to go halfway across the world
"circumstances", you say
"a decision made for me" you say
i believe you
do you believe me when i tell you im hurting?
do you believe me when i say my heart aches?
do you believe in us?
do you believe in us enough to keep us together when we'll be on different sides of the earth?
do you really, truly, believe in us?
do you?
do you?
do you?
i fear not.
