I tried to show you the stars
but all you saw was black sky.
I tried to lift you up
but all you noticed was how far you had to fall.
I tried to sing to you
but all you heard was the silence between words.
I tried to give you warmth
but all you felt was the itch of my sweater.
You're far too aware,
yet so very blind.

I wish you could see what I see.
