When its focus is real
life is reality
there’s a frightening catharsis
an epiphany of truth
We can feel the silence
it is a lonely place to be,
if I could offer assurance
would she let me be.
I want to know your life,
hold your hope in my heart
wish you might have peace
to know that love is real.
Even while misery calls,
there’s a reason to try to know
a friend would rather
be there to support.
I want to support you
I want you to hear me please
I’m just a human being
one compassionate fool to another.
I can feel your silence yet I know
a part of you that could let go
