You told me you were fine
Because you wouldn’t understand
What wouldn’t I understand
Anything
That’s not an answer
Because an answer would start a fight
We’re already fighting
A fight we can come back from
We’ve always come back
I’m scared that we wont
Just tell me what’s going on
I don’t want to fight you
You’re already fighting me
I don’t want to lose you
You’re not going to lose me
I just want you to understand how I feel
I do understand how you feel
You don’t
I do
Then why do you invalidate me?
I don’t invalidate you
You do
I don’t
Then why do you shut me out
I can’t
Just tell me
I can’t
I love you
I’m scared of you
