UNCOMFORTABLE

I don't know what to do when you
entertain the names you know
I'm uncomfortable with.

You can't resist her.
You can't ignore her.
And you never handle it.

But—why?
She's nice?
You know her longer?
She's with someone else?

So—now, as always...
I have to let it slide, right?
I have to be patient, right?
I have to understand, right?

You can't give me assurance
only by words you can't keep
and actions I can't see.

I know you're exhausted but
I'm begging you to show me!
