Wilt

In the morning
 I awoke to find you gone
 What in the darkness
 Holds the guilt above my heart
 The new season
 I took risks to find the truth
 A hope for someone else
 Some other than myself
 I felt the rain
 I sensed my restraint
 I played pretend to fit your world
 I fought myself to be your whole
 But all along I'd always known in time that I would lose my hold
 In the turning
 Self defeat begins the call
 Your renewing
 Convincing me of all my faults
 When I withdrew your comfort grew
 So surely I must be the fool
 If loves a feeling that can bloom, then why can't I give that to you
 I know that I'm much more reserved
 It makes you scared, It leaves you hurt
 A faithful hand is never worth the pain that you never deserved
 I cut you down to keep control
 I let stillness consume your soul
 When all you wanted was a home
 I let you suffer through the cold
