Reaching

I keep trying
Trying to reach you
I try with all I have
But I still don’t have a clue

The miles of your silence
I can no longer cross
And I know I need to turn away
Turn and face the loss

And my world splits
Splits wide open
I lay awake with questions to ask
But I know the answers and the tasks

And what if
Instead of reaching for you
I decided to reach for me
Then maybe I might see
That my loving heart and soul
Were already whole

So I stop now
I stop reaching for you
Cause with you I feel shattered
I am the only one that matters

And I grieve here
I grieve for you
I am sad for your own loss
Of all that you left unrealized
Do you even know the cost
Words of love I see now as lies
