Don’t walk away from me.
I’m trying to talk to you.
I know what you’re feeling,
But I don’t know what is
Going on in your head.
Please tell me.
It’s obvious I’ve upset you,
So don’t pretend I haven’t.
I know you well enough
To know when you’re lying.
If you don’t tell me what
It was that I did,
I can’t change it.
So tell me.
