You give me just enough,
To know that you're still here.
Every "good morning beautiful,"
Says you've not gone anywhere.
Do you have your guard up, though?
So that I can't see?
Are you stepping back,
And waiting patiently?
I wonder if you doubt,
My loyalty to you.
I wish I could give reassurance,
That my faithfulness is true.
I wonder if you question,
Just what it is I see.
I wish I could put your mind at ease,
You've captured more than just my curiosity.
Maybe you don't need these words,
Or the confidence of where I stand.
But just in case, here they are.
Protect them like they're contraband.
