Can You

Can you see me?
I've been here all along.
Maybe it's crazy, but it's true.
Never giving up, never giving in
Always on top, except for when I'm not
Yes I'm up & down, up & down,
On & on & on.
Can you hear me?
Sometimes I call out your name.
Yes everyday is the same story
Never losing hope, never losing sight
Always moving up, except for when I drop.
I start on top, then I'm down under
Go & go & go.
Can you feel me?
My hand reaches out to touch yours
You may not believe me, but it does.
Always reaching out, always reaching up
Never close enough, especially when I'm down.
No you always slip away
Further, & further, & further.
Can you sense me?
All I want is to be with you
I know I can't be, but I still wish anyway.
It doesn't matter what pattern I follow.
Words pour from my heart on to this paper.
No matter how hard I try, my words won't stop.
You're beyond my grasp now, & I'm okay
All I want was for you to see me,
For you to hear me, & feel me, & sense me.
But now I can see that you aren't worth it.
Can you see me, hear me, feel me, & sense me?
If you could, you'd see, hear, feel, & sense me slipping away.
