Lux's Indulgences - 16. Incertitude
When the hours draw long
And the calls begin to come in
When the changes start to come fast
And are too much to bear
How can I be with you?
How can I hold you up?
I want to comfort your weary soul
Provide aid, release and distraction
But I don’t know how to get inside your head
To read your needs before you even know they are there
I may be your lover, faithful and true
But there is no star-crossed magic in my talents
I do not know how to anticipate you
Please, I beg, please tell me
When things are hurting, worrying
Aching
Please, I beg, please tell me
What I can do
I am lost right now in my guesswork
In the silence on the other side of that
Closed bedroom door
Letting you sleep off the trials
Of a difficult day
But please, I beg, please let my
Pleas not be another burden
Making everything just a little bit worse
Because I don’t know what to do
