Why Do I Love You?

Folder: 
Others

You care for me in other ways

but are never there to comfort me.

My tear-stained eyes

want to cling to your shoulder

but once more, you push me away.

Your soul is still a mystery to me

I can never get close enough to you

On the other hand, when you need me,

I'm always there to caress you

not a shadow of doubt in my arms

the arms which wrap around you in your time of need

Why do I love you as I do?

I fear your love for me not true.

Why do I act as your weeping wife?

I'll probably feel this way for life.
