Chasing Balance

We met in a moment, the stars aligned, Every laugh, every glance, felt like it was designed. Late-night drives, dreams we'd unfold, Now I'm chasing warmth in moments gone cold. She's out there grinding, I'm holding back fears, Balancing my love with her world of gears. I see her trying, I feel her strain, But some days I wonder if I'm the weight or the chain. Used to be easy, now it's a climb, Silence between us feels like a crime. Am I too much, or not enough still? Love's a river that's fighting the hill. It's a war in my heart, I'm learning the way, Trying to bridge the words we don't say. Holding on tight, though the thread feels thin, Searching for the spark to reignite again. She says she's tired, I know it's real, But sometimes I wonder, does she feel what I feel? I buy her gifts, think it'll ease her day, But maybe my love comes in the wrong way. Her choices, her freedom, I'm learning to adapt, But my own emotions keep laying the trap. I see her beauty, I see the looks, Why can't I close the chapter in my own books? She's in her world, and I'm on the edge, Trying to stay grounded while we walk this ledge. Her silence, her absence, it cuts through deep, But I love her enough to lose my sleep. It's a war in my heart, I'm learning the way, Trying to bridge the words we don't say. Holding on tight, though the thread feels thin, Searching for the spark to reignite again. Therapy's near, hope's in our hands, Building something stronger, brick by strand. I see her effort, I feel her fight, We're chasing the balance between wrong and right. I don't need perfect; I just need true, I just need to know she feels it too. We've got the history, we've got the pain, Now we just need the love to pour through the rain. We'll rebuild the fire, step by step, Learn how to give, how to accept. She's my calm in the storm, my anchor, my peace, With her by my side, I'll find release. It's a war in my heart, I'm learning the way, Trying to bridge the words we don't say. Holding on tight, though the thread feels thin, Searching for the spark to reignite again.
