Dream on dreamer

I know there are times
when you just don't
have it in you to face me.
I also understand
that during those times,
it has nothing to do
with anyone other than you.
Carrying the world can be so weighty
and its demands can be so demanding.
It's alright, I know it's hard to trust me
and I don't blame you.
At times, I don't trust you, either.
Our words can be so revealing,
making us vulnerable.
Sometimes you just need space to breathe.
We all need room to think
and a chance to be alone.
It can get daunting having to tell
your story time and again.
And it always seems to take
more energy than we really have.
But it's okay, I'll wait for you.
Just rest assured that even though
I don't know exactly how you feel,
I do understand you're just doing
what you have to do
and no matter what,
I'll always support that.
