A poem about the difficulty of relationships. |
I’ve worked all day, worked all night Labored hard, labored long Come home to you, come home tired You make me smile, make me strong I show my feelings, good and bad I hold you tight, I hold you high You give sweet aura, but sour taste I’ll prove myself, until I die Passion making, passion lost I feel enchanted, you feel bored I know you love me, I know you try Your passion’s low, like it’s a chore Is it indifference? Is it that tough? Like my hard work is not enough To make you happy, to make you care What must I do to make it fair? What is wrong? What is right? Must I work harder to keep things bright? I bring home food, I bring home money But don’t feel love when I call you honey You’ve made me happy, and you still do For better, worse, foolish or fateful Don’t wanna leave you, pray you won’t leave me If I work harder, will you be grateful? My love is physical, yours is mental Your games are rough, your games of fear Fear of letdowns, fear of failure The darkened road in which we steer Pray fate will guide us to a better day When we show desire, when we are safe To show we care, without remorse The day my labor keeps love awake I’ve worked all day, worked all night Labored hard, labored long Love you forever, I’ll do my part The time has come, we won’t go wrong |
