Tell Me (2)

(Written at age 19.)

tell me your cure for a broken heart,
tell me how to end the perfect start,
tell me the words to say in my head,
to understand why i'm alone in bed.

tell me your drug for the blinding pain,
tell me how not to miss the rain,
tell me the song to sing in my mind,
to understand why it's you i can't find.

tell me your remedy for a hopeful soul,
tell me how not to wish to be whole,
tell me the reality to live in my imagination,
to understand why you are my salvation.
