Stranger
Deep inside I’m hurting, because I’ve hurt you,
feel useless I don’t know what to do.
I’m trying to accommodate your every request
and respect you, to give your heart a rest.
You say you think I want something from you,
you’re right I do, and your forgiveness too.
I’m not expecting change insight,
I don’t want to feel like a failure every night.
I know you love me, but holding back,
and it’s my fault I know and must stay on track.
To be the man you fell in love with, not a stranger in the house,
not a mean thug or monster but your spouse.
All I ask is not to shut me out, and leave me with doubt.
I wish to be close to you, to touch you to hold you,
not feel empty with desire when I say adieu.
Can you understand me?
Am I making sense?
Who am I to turn to?
To whom do I repent?
