You Wanted To Know How I Felt

We were in and out 
Of this “so-called” relationship for too long
Not letting each other know how we felt 
Not really being in a relationship
I feel that it was solely based on sex
Don’t you think so…
Tell me when did we ever
Take time to talk to each other 
When we were alone
When did we ever just sit back and relax
When did we ever just have fun with each other
I would have to say… 
NEVER…
Yeah…
The sex was great…
But that’s not all I’m looking for
Maybe we do need to go our separate ways 
Do our own thing
But still raise our child
I thought that maybe we could work this out
But then I realized that what we have isn’t real
Why do I say it’s not real
Because we don’t communicate 
How can you have a real relationship and not communicate
NO…
You can’t have a real relationship and not communicate
I want someone who is going to tell me how they feel about something
Someone who isn’t going to hide their feelings
Someone who isn’t going to second guess their love for me
I wish that person was you
