One In The Same

You and I are one in the same

Such a hurtful past with no one to blame

So we shy away from what we have right now

Think back to the past, forget about now



We share a common bond

Something no one else has

We spend half our lives

Just trying to put it together

We forget our lines

An then we start all over

Such a stupid game

With way too much pain



Running side by side

You never look my way

If you would just glace to your side

I would feel so compelled to say

How I miss you so much

And how you never know just what I'm thinking

If I were to vocal these words

They would come out in blurs



It is just what you do to me

I am afraid, yet still right by you

I am my own greatest fear

My final battle in this story

If you could read my eyes

They would tell you a different story

One where it is just you and I

This life wouldn't be so gorey



Laying low is just what we always do

Then when it comes to me and you

The laying always comes unglued

I find myself always alone

With no one here right beside me

Can't we change these lines

Maybe create another story?



Yes, you and I are quite the same

We both share the same compassions

I am a sweety at heart while you were from the start

We both are always looking for God

Someone to give us a sign

Maybe I am yours, and you are mine?



God, give me an answer

Or at least a more simple question

I want a reaction to this silent interaction

Maybe a shooting star or a fresh breeze all around me

If you can't say "Yes" or "No"

Find some other way...to let me know

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This one should seem pretty obvious.  It is about wanting to see an sign or a reaction to all of these questions.  I want some way to know the truth whether to persue just what I am doing, or an answer of No to tell me to give up until later.
