These Are The Things

by Ellen   Aug 19, 2005


I need you,
I want you,
I love you,
I miss you,

These are the thoughts that go through my head,

Do you need me?
Do you want me?
Do you love me?
Do you miss me?

These are the questions that are left unsaid.

I can't eat,
I can't drink,
I can't dream,
I can't think,

These are the things that I need you to do,

Can you eat?
Can you drink?
Can you dream?
Can you think?

These are the things that I cannot ask you.

I need you,
I want you,
I love you,
I miss you,

These are the things I've finally said,

Do you need me?
Do you want me?
Do you love me?
Do you miss me?

These are the questions that have gone through my head.

I can't eat,
I can't drink,
I can't dream,
I can't think,

These are the things that you say in reply,

Can you eat?
Can you drink?
Can you dream?
Can you think?

These are the things you ask, as you look me in the eye.
