What is troubling your heart?<\/p>\n You can\u2019t seem to be able to put it into words.<\/p>\n You need to try. Reading minds is for the birds.<\/p>\n I think without you I just can\u2019t make it.<\/p>\n I am afraid that I can\u2019t even fake it.<\/p>\n You say you are not trying to hurt me.<\/p>\n What is going on. Can you hear my plea?<\/p>\n It is nothing that you did or didn\u2019t do.<\/p>\n Then was it something you did do?<\/p>\n No, it\u2019s not that. It\u2019s hard to explain.<\/p>\n This is like 20 questions guessing game.<\/p>\n Please, no tears, just tell it like it is.<\/p>\n I am trying. This is something that is.<\/p>\n That is what? Remember, I can\u2019t guess.<\/p>\n I am sorry about it all. It\u2019s such a mess.<\/p>\n What is a mess? I need to know.<\/p>\n Our situation is a mess I\u2019m feeling low.<\/p>\n I am still no closer to understanding it all.<\/p>\n Just listen. I will explain before I bawl.<\/p>\n I am waiting. Just say it like it is.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t rush me. First of all. There is no \u2018his\u2019.<\/p>\n What does that mean? I don\u2019t get it.<\/p>\n There is no one else. Just forget it.<\/p>\n I didn\u2019t say there was. Get to the point.<\/p>\n What point? I don\u2019t have a point.<\/p>\n Then why the need for time apart?<\/p>\n It is hard to put into words . I\u2019m not smart.<\/p>\n Sure you are. Who said you weren\u2019t smart?<\/p>\n No, I\u2019m not smart enough to say the right words.<\/p>\n Well, right now, there\u2019s nothing being heard.<\/p>\n Do you see what I am trying to say?<\/p>\n It\u2019s about as clear as night and day.<\/p>\n So far you haven\u2019t said anything.<\/p>\n This would be easier if I had had a fling.<\/p>\n What? Did you have a fling?<\/p>\n No!! Can\u2019t you understand anything.<\/p>\n With that she left the room.<\/p>\n I felt dumber than a broom.<\/p>\n Is there something I am missing here?<\/p>\n I threw my hands in the air \u00a0in fear.<\/p>\n Looks like this \u2018love boat\u2019 has run a ground.<\/p>\n I\u2019m standing here with no one around.<\/p>\n ———————————————–R.
