Jesus Came Between Us

Jesus came between us a few days ago.

I sit and watch you brood – about what?

I guess… I will never know.

 

It has always been my greatest fear.

Living with your echoes of emptiness.

You always make sure I hear.

 

You mumble to yourself – shake your head.

Refuse to communicate out loud.

And always leave the loving words unsaid.

 

You make it very hard to forgive.

Still, I begin each new day happy.

It is how I choose to live –

 

You’re mostly vigilant on the razor’s edge.

Letting anger come between us.

I’m done, my love – now, Jesus drives the wedge.
