I tell you that I love you but only through my lens
I tell you that I need you but it’s all inside my head
You love me through you actions
But I’m too deaf to sense
You move mountains and hills for me
All at your expense
Time with me makes you content
But boy am I so dense
I’m sorry that I hurt you
I wish I could retract
I take and take and take
But never recall to put back
To spend time with me is a generous gift
I’ve been too selfish to know
You give so much and all you ask
Is for love to overflow
The value of time is not in quantity
But in the quality of how it’s spent
I’m sorry for hurting you
And making you discontent
I tell you that I love you but no longer through my lens
No longer sitting idle and up upon that fence
I’ll love you through my actions
Because you deserve love and only satisfactions
Yours
