If I push
will you return
will you come back
from that dead space of
insecurity
apathy
confusion?

If I push
can I have you back
will you remember
will you transform
will you recall
when my arms
gave you comfort
my mind
gave you love
my soul
gave you home

If I push
I know you will run
further hide
burrow deeper
shielding from feeling
so pain can't destroy you

But I must push
force myself to you
propel myself forward in love
cocoon within the magic
of us

i must push
