To Far I Am Driven

To far I am driven

Out there tonight, no moon, nothing.
Darkness only, no stars can be seeing.
That’s how you are tonight, no good side.
Like in the literature, Mr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

Times are harsh and tenderness I crave.
And like to the sand comes the wave,
I come home weary, looking for your arms.
But you are out of reach, cold and far.

Confusion sets in my heart, because I see,
But you are only physically here to me.
Your mind is not, your temper is gone.
I come to you, but I’m not welcome.

So dark out there and I can’t sleep.
I look at you, to all that I seek.
But tenderness and care are hidden.
And to far from you I am driven.
