Trouble

Trouble me

Disturb me with all your cares and your worries.

Trouble me

On the days when you feel spent.

Why let your shoulders bend

Underneath this burden when my back is sturdy and strong?

Trouble me.

Speak to me

Don't mislead me, the calm I feel means a storm is swelling;

There's no telling where it starts or how it ends.

Speak to me

Why are you building this thick brick wall

To defend me when your silence is my greatest fear?

Why let your shoulders bend

Underneath this burden when my back is sturdy and strong?

Speak to me

Let me

Have a look inside these eyes while I'm learning.

Let me

Please don't hide them just because of tears.

Let me

Send you off to sleep with a

"There, there, now stop your turning and tossing."

Let me

Know where the hurt is and how to heal.

Spare me, spare me

Don't spare me anything troubling.

Trouble me

Trouble me

Disturb me with all your cares and your worries.

Speak to me

And let our words build a shelter from the storm.

Let me

And lastly

Let me know what I can mend.

There's more, honestly, than my sweet friend, you can see.

Trust is what I'm offering if you trouble me.
