Can't stop the ache
How much can I take?
This time invested
Knowing you like no other
My soul yearns for
your affection
My heart shattered
by your mistakes
Yet I will remain
Enamored by you
And I will wait.
Your heart stays with me
And does not stray
You see me in whispers
And hear me in visions
of beautiful memories.
I haunt your dreams
As I wait for you.
Every bend I turn
Remnants of you I see
The kiss of the sun
warm on my face
As your lips
Ecstacy and elation rises within my senses
And back to earth
I collide
With the truths of you and another
And still I wait.
You make your choices
You give your heart tenderly
She takes it away
Greed in her eyes
Breaking pieces slowly off
Pieces you trusted in her hands
And slowly you turn
To me
And I continue to wait.
The affections earned
The trust instilled
Relations formed
Step by step
Finally I move
In the direction of
your open arms
Apologies accepted and set aside
And I wait for you
No longer.
