I can't change you

I can sit by the phone

And wait for it to ring

But it won’t make you call me

I can wait by the door

And wait for it to open

And hope it’s you on the other side

I can write you a not

Telling what I want to hear

But when you say it

It won’t be real

I can ignore you

To see if you step up

But it just makes you think

I hate you

I can frown

To make you make me smile

But it makes me sad

For real

I try to make you out

To what I want you to be

But it makes me not like you more

I try to turn you into my dream

And I realized that you were my dream all along

And me trying to change

Has made it a nightmare
