God, grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change;
Courage to change the things I can;
And wisdom to know the difference.


Have you found fault with me?
I have done my best to please
I guess my best just didn’t cut
Into your heart enough

Can you feel me yet?
After all these years,
You still don’t feel it?
Not even at the start?

Part your lips
Grace my soul with a tender kiss
My wings are tucked inside
I am dissolving into the place where you hide
And pretend to love me

Can you see me through the windows?
Touch your fingers into my soul?
I have laid myself bare
Made myself translucent
For you to see

But you don’t see

Can you feel me yet?
After all these tears,
You still don’t feel it?
There’s nothing in your heart?

This loneliness will always remain
Won’t it?
This life will never change
I know it

But, my dear, if all remains the same
Why did you walk out that door,
Only to return again?
Perhaps it is you, not I, who desecrates
The trust we have made.
