the key

You hold the key
to my heart.

You held it
from the start.

It's always been
in your hand,

and I can't understand,
why you've done,

what you've done
with that key,

and what you've done
to you and me,

and I need to ask me why,
and if you would
give one more try

to explain to me,
to make it easy
for me to see,

where I went wrong,
and why you thought
about being gone.

I thought I was your everything,
you were everything to me,

why didn't you know,
why couldn't you see?

I made it all so plain to see,
there should have been no doubt.

Each time that I did see you,
my heart let out a shout.

It shouted that it loved you,
with every bit of soul,

and that when by your side,
you did make it whole.

Come back to me, be mine again,
if you can, please let me in,

to the place I once belonged,
where I want to be once more.
