He Loves You

For Lorenz (Hope things work out)

Lindy, he’s hurting

But you can’t see why.

He’s hurting but you can’t see

The pain in his eyes.

 

He loves you, Goddamnit!

Can you not see?

In his arms is where

He wants you to be.

 

The quiver in his voice

Tells me he’s been crying

God, Lindy,

Can’t you feel he’s dying?

 

He’d do anything

To keep you by his side,

Anything for you,

Because you are his pride.

 

Just look at him,

See the love is those brown eyes.

Look at him damn it!

You cannot deny

 

That his love for you

Is one so strong;

That the feelings he has for you

Have been there all along.

 

Come on, Lindy, let him express

Just the way he feels;

Allow him to tell you

That his love for you is real.

 

You’re a complete moron

If you hurt him,

Let me tell you,

I consider it a sin,

 

To destroy a heart

As beautiful as this;

A soul so loving

And as true as his.

 

Stop for a minute, Lindy,

Look into your heart.

Please, Lindy,

Don’t tear him apart…
