What Can't I?

What can I say to make it better?

What can I say to make it not hurt?

What can I say to you in a simple letter,without me sounding curt?   What can I do to make it up? What can I do to help you out? What can I do for all the stuff,that created this whole bout?   What can I try to make this work? What can I try to make you see? What can I try to show I am also hurt,and am not completely crazy?   Why can't you give me a chance? Why can't you give me a response? Why can't you help me advance,and deal with both of our wants?   I guess that is what happens when you do not match, when you do not see eye to eye, when you are not a complete catch,and the love you felt was a lie.But then again, isn't that most love nowadays?
