Incapable

Everyone needs that push to know that she’s still feeling it

To know she’s still there, that he’s not alone in it

Something so small, it takes just a lil bit

To know she still cares, and not moved on from it

Something to ease the mind and hold comfort wit

More than “I don’t wanna talk ‘bout it.”

Ask for too much—emotional angry fit

And truth be told, don’t know if I can handle it

I let her know that I still care

That I’m still around, that I’m still there

And I understand that she’s confused and scared

Due to past issues that polluted the air

But I need some love too, ain’t that only fair?

To know that it’s “us” and not half a pair.

But I keep hope alive and take all I can bare

Because I believe that what I found is something so rare

Without some feedback, cain’t promise I’ll be there

And I’ll miss the smile, the voice, and the beautiful black hair.

Two times before, I had made up my mind,

To move on from this, to move on with mine

And sure enough, just in the knick of time

Her heart broke through and the planets a lined.

And that push I needed was a written line

It let me know that she still care, but wasn’t ready to be mine,

That she was confused and scared and needed more time

And now heaven only knows I need a new sign

Like she sucks up my heart and keeps it to herself

As if she’s a poor man accumulating mass wealth

And I start to feel like I have nothing left

And begin to think this is bad for my health

Cuz I give her my love, leave none for myself

Now there’s an empty bottle of me, alone on the shelf.
