You Make Him Wait Till He’s Gone


    He gives you everything you need and everything you want, but still you feel something missing.  You don’t know what to do should you go or should you stay and if you stay will everything work out anyways.  He says he loves you and you can’t reply to him for you don’t know if what is in your mind is what is in your heart.  For your mind takes over your thinking and leaves you filled with doubt you stopped listening to your heart the last time it was broken. 


You tell yourself not to be a fool and fall again.  While all this time all he wants is for you to just let him in.  You put up a barricade around yourself thinking hey I can protect myself from love I don’t need it I am strong and can be on my own.  He stands on the sidelines and waits patiently as you play a mind game with yourself.  You keep holding him off and at night he ask himself what has happen to you to make you so bitter towards love. 


He knows if you let him in you will be happy and the love you have will never end.   He try’s to understand what you need from him but he can’t figure out what to give you that he hasn’t already.  You push him away and make him cry tears of anger and of sorrow for no one else makes him feel like you do. Your to blind to see just what he wants to mean to you.  You look at yourself in the mirror and ask why your so damn stubborn you know he loves you.


Then one day he packs his bags as you look on pretending like nothing is wrong.    He try’s to get you to say I love you to him just one time  and you stand there like a statue of stone with not even a tear in your eye and tell him I’m sorry I don’t love you c’mon girl he knows it’s a lie. 


He walks out of your life and now here you are all alone and without love. So sad and lonely cause you lost the best thing that you ever had.  You see him a few months later looking happy and content and you pretend to be the same.  When you go home you weep and hate yourself for he was the love you’d been looking for but its to late now he has gone on in life without you. 

Your bitterness made him leave you and never look back is that really how you wanted the love of your life to act.   He’s gone and your alone so alone when you cry it chills you to the bone and now no one is there to hold you and kiss you goodnight.
                                 Forgotten Things


            You live your life day to day never realizing  what’s down the road.  You go about life in such a way  you don’t even know the day.   Working and running from place to place you tend to forget what really matters.


A friend sends a letter and you tell yourself you will get in touch with them soon a month goes by and then another and then you get that terrible call that your friend has passed away.  You fall to your knees and ask god why.  Then you realize you never got that visit in that you so desperately needed and all those things you wished you could of said are just thoughts that are gone and dead.  You shed your tears for the years that you were always close and weep for the years when you lost touch.   You try to tell yourself that they knew you cared but doubt fills your mind as to when you ever showed them how much they meant to you.  You stay awake all night fighting tears and asking your lost friend to forgive your selfishness  and in your mind realize how much you are going to miss all the good times you had with them.


  A day goes by then a week and then a month and your friend doesn’t cross you mind again and then one day you are looking for something and you find that lost memory all over again and the pain comes back as sharp as a cut from a knife.  You realize you need to change the way you live.  You try to visit all those people you have left behind to go on with your life, but you find that they are so consumed with themselves that they don‘t have time for you anymore.

You realize just how badly your lost without your friends and try to go on with life the best you can.  You live your life day to day never knowing what’s down the road till you get that unexpected news again.
