Tired of Playing The Game

Waiting

Waiting for the ringing

Waiting for the call

Waiting for the door to open

The sound of your foot fall

Waiting for your whistle

The happy of your smile

Waiting for your body

To sit with me a while

Waiting for your sunshine

To take away my rain

Waiting for your healing

To take away my pain

Waiting, waiting, all I do

But you don't seem to care

Every time I look around

You are never there

So, in this state I find myself

Tell you what I aim to do

Check myself before I wreck myself

With all this waiting 'round on you

You know I've been real sweet to you

Always tried to treat you nice

But without maintaining, the hottest flame

Will eventually turn to ice

So before I go find other fire

To warm my chilly heart

Why didn't you tell me that this would end

Before it had a chance to start?

~~~~~~~~~

to all my former,

 present, past

and future would-be's,

could-be's, wanna-be's

and never will be's,

ex's and next's

and what the heck'es.....

But We Don't Say Goodbye

 

But We Don't Say Goodbye

We've said a lot of things, we two

Like , 'I am so happy that I found you

Like,  you are my moon, my stars and sun

My life, my love, my only one.'

We've laughed in pain,

We've cried for joy

We've been transparent

Been shy and coy.

We've reeled love in

And gave it slack

We've run away

And then ran back.

We've fought like lions,

Cooed like a dove

Laid down our lives

For each other's love.

No matter the circumstance,

No matter the cause

We've held to the victories,

Dismissing the loss.

We've written the poetry

That brought forth the sighs

Embraced like true lovers

With tears in our eyes.

Said 'I love you forever'

Said 'I hate you right now'

Said 'I might live without you'

But I cannot see how.'

We've walked through the thunder

Hand in hand, holding fast

Danced in moonlight at midnight

Long as moonlight would last.

Been through so much, we two, together

Will go through more before we die

We say such things and some we shouldn't

But you and I don't say goodbye.
