Falling Out of the Sky

You say you’re leaving and I say ‘when’?
You say you’re hurting and I ask ‘why’?
You say you need me and I don’t say a word.
You look me in the eyes and I turn away.
You cry out my name but I don’t want to hear you say,
‘Catch me. Will you catch me, when I’m falling out of the sky?’
Silently, I turn away; look away, from the tears and all your fears,
of falling out of the sky.
I feel disgraced and out of place in your world.
A quick smile is all I need to mend my pained heart.
I don’t have to say and we both know,
That I’ll catch you when you’re falling out of the sky.
