Just Tell Me

The aching in my chest
Where did you go?
I don’t understand
Did I do something wrong?
Was I being selfish
Even just by asking?

Please don’t turn away
Don’t leave me here
To contemplate
What mistake
I could have made
In the simple question

Just tell me
What I did
To make you act this way

Just tell me
What I can do
To fix the problem

Just talk to me
So I know
what you’re thinking

Tell me
Because I don’t know
What to do
Talk to me
Because I miss you
