Miscommunication
by Krista

Keep holding on, love, keep holding your fear,
feel hurt inside so your heart won't grow numb.
I understand that you can't feel safe here,
but stay still. There's some things you can't outrun.

I never thought that pain could make me come
to love you more. Trouble is I can't say
what I want from you and you don't have fun
trying to read my mind. Show us a way

to speak with our eyes and I will weigh
too little on each look, and you too much.
You want too much complication! One lay
by itself cannot satisfy your lust.

I cannot make your head understand mine.
I'm fortunate my heart heard yours just fine.
