Click hereI can’t have you really as mine
Even though you truly are mine
I can’t be the man I want to be
And that’s probably for the best
I can’t go back and change the past
Yet that is exactly what I want to do
I can’t always be honest with myself
Even though I always tell the truth
I can’t tell you what I really want
Because it’s not what you want
I can’t be there the way I want to be
Maybe I’m not even totally here
I can’t tell you how I really feel
Because I’m not totally sure myself
I can’t be without all that you are
And I’m sorry that I tried
I can’t ask you what I want to ask
For the fear of losing what we have
I can’t make you better as I wish
Maybe because you can’t be improved
I can’t believe how you see the world
And for that I am very thankful
I can’t ever get enough of you
But I’ll always fear that you will
I can’t understand how you found me
And why I’m even more lost now
I can’t find all of the right words
No matter how many I try
I can’t finish this poem the way that I want
