Do
you not understand?
Oh
can you not see?
I
have fears in many ways
Many
ways that have overtake me
I
say I see
But
do I really?
But
I too say
I
am not controlling
All
my love I give
To
you unconditionally
Is
it in his mind she asks?
Those
fears she cannot see
Why
does she struggle so?
When
wanting to have them shown to her
In
a place she can see
Did
she have her fears as well?
Were
they hidden deep within?
And
not yet to be spoken
A
love was found by them
So
much shared
In
such a short span of time
Can
you hear yet?
Can
you see?
There
are fears
There
are fears within me
She
must have looked away
Without
even hearing the whispering of the tree
It
has to come to this
For
I am not being heard
You
do not understand
You
proclaim your love
Your
love that is for me
I
need the time and the space
For
you and me to understand
I
must see the answers
And
hear themselves for me
That
is what she asks
That
he truly search within
It
is not I you fear he says
It
is something from within
I
may be sitting here away from you
Crying
out in pain and fear stating
I
don’t understand
But
as the light of each new day starts
My
ears are open
Open
from within
I
do! I do Dave!
I
do understand
Does
it make the pain any less?
Sometimes
I ask
Had
only back then
Why
did I not
Why
did I not understand back then?
My
love for you is so deep
It
always has been
I DO! I DO NOW DAVE, EVEN
THOUGH IT IS LATE
I DO UNDERSTAND!
