What you ask of me without words
Could just be what I am asking of myself
But you might not care if I stay or go—a layer of apathy
What I ask of you with and without words
Could just be what my heart alone has want of
So you would be glad even grateful if I left never to return
What others demand of you in all their forms
Could just be what you have allowed under pressure
But you don't see to do things differently
What you ask of others
Could just be what you know—familiarity
But you don't see everything that's missing
What we ask of ourselves
Is not all we are capable of
So we reach for our potential to little avail
What is there for the taking
Is still there and it will keep—for now
So we borrow on credit a fresh day to try again
What I know of us
Is that we have more than either comprehends
And we want to make each other happy
Looking through glass
We strive on side by side to understand
To find a unified reflection
Because somehow I must believe
Unopened windows bother both of us—not just me
And we will see this through into eternity
