Bits of Shame

The one thing I fear is, you Disappointing me
Abandoning me
Leaving me alone
While I'm out proclaiming our love

I don't like having to guess if you'll call me
Praying to God, every inbox message comes from you
Sometimes I wish you were predictable
So that it would be easier for me to sleep at night

I don't doubt you in the major things
I'm more concerned with the minors
The little things do count
But you make up for them, by replacing them with "other little things" I didn't expect
So you're forgiven

It's true, you've done things that have hurt my feelings
And I've cried, because in that split moment I feared that that's how it will be for a lifetime
Me wanting the little things
And you replacing them with the things that count

Respect & Loyalty, underlined by Commitment
But underneath that, Disappointment
You disappointment me in the little things that I want
And that's what hurts me

My relationship is not normal like everyone elses
I know you love me
But only hope you will keep all your promises
Show me like you tell me

Show me how responsible you are
So I can stop questioning the depths of my faith in you
That's what I want

I wanna keep my blind faith, without any doubt
That way, I won't have to be ashamed
