i have waited for you
and cried myself dry
and acted like a fool
to catch your eye
said things i have never
and will never mean
and all because i missed you.
i have lost all faith
in a passing attack
and still held onto the hope
you'd somehow come back
but i pushed you away with
my wild mood swings
and all because i missed you.
i have lost all control
in this course of infection
and taken your indifference
as the harshest rejection
i forgot there were people
more important than me
and all because i missed you.
now you are leaving
and i think it's my fault
i think you saw my advances
as a mad, planned assault
i never meant to do this
to drive you on out
it was just because i miss(ed) you.
Boy can I ever relate!!!! I really like this poem. I am sorry it was inspired by pain. This poem says so much and I hope things get better! -May
We all do this...and it is after all, only human. i think that love does this sometimes...tests us against the odds...there is a lesson to be learned, but not always a harsh one...thanks for sharing.
