Where Have You Gone

    The empty silence before me
    Oh, this again, how can it be
    My assuming causes so much grief
    You have made your point to be brief

    I am trying to learn as you teach
    This is hard, Will I grasp? Can I reach?
    It seems such a hopeless cause
    But with you there is only a pause

    You give me praise and show me hope
    I am one that has a hard time to cope
    Even thru these times you are there
    Never giving up and showing you care

    I have come a long way this past year
    Feelings reeling and causing a tear
    Slowly flowing down my cheek
    As your words you do speak

    Such strong emotions evolve
    But many problems left to solve
    I feel there is no room for me
    Maybe opening up is not the key

    The actions that you ask
    I feel are not a task
    Before I can show you how I feel
    I need to know if you are real

    Open up to me and talk
    Maybe we can take a walk
    Give me some kind of clue
    Show me your actions are true

    Do not stay gone for to long
    All the words can tell you I was wrong
    Time will tell what is best
    Maybe then we can put this to rest
