Sufferin & Healin'

I would talk of time
but that would be blind
to the way
wounds take to heal

I would talk of feelings
but would that be stealing
away from
the realities of pain?

I would talk of love
but could that ever be enough
for the chasm that can grow
between people so close?

I would talk of you
but would that be enough
to hit the spot on the heart?

I would hear news of you
giving me worries
i never thought i'd feel

I would pray for you
and that came the closest
to expressing my love for you
