Darkness

What is it that I must do
So that I can have you 
Be yourself 
Why can't I get myself 
To speak the words
You need to hear 
Why is that you can't find
Refuge in my arms
Please don't run away from me
Stop chasing
I am losing you here
I'm so close to losing you now 
You boast of being afraid of the dark 
But you sit in it 
You can't sleep without it
You're putting me in the dark
With all these excuses I make - 
On your account
Please be safe
Wherever you run off to
I am here
I'm for real 
I dearly love you
