There's a growing uneasiness inside of me
since you asked me that midnight question
My mind is overwhelmed with reasons and logic
to convey my explanation
I thought of using metaphors
of dances and scales and rain
But no analogy exists in prose
to describe my continuous pain
The more she gives and turns to you
the less we are are to be
It isn't selfish or envious greed
and it's far from jealousy
It's a powerful pull upon your will
that causes you to go blind
To the constant love I've pledged to you
the hope you thought you would never find
Her words contrite and soothing for you
deafen you to my sighs
And though you know and feel my fears
You stare straight ahead and drive
My own clarity comes to me at last
my love for him is in vain
Because the honest reason
why it bothers me so
is she takes my hope of us away...
But the desert so thirsty
and parched of true faith
cannot survive without rain
