The Pain

Alone..
In the silence

No one to hold me
Where are you?
Why aren’t you here?
What’s held you up this time?
Out with the guys havin’ a beer-????

How can it be
 You and me
So much space
         I’ve plead my case
                                               How can it be??
I thought
I would gain
A love forever
But all I got
 was
Pain
You’ve hurt me
 so bad
I know-
 I’ve been had.

You are so cold
You make me feel
 so old

The love I thought we had
Has now turned
                     to bad

I’m all alone
Wishing
               you would phone
Wondering….
                Waitng…..
           Scared and afraid……
Wanting you
                   Needing you
Crying for you

Feeling so empty

So all alone
No one to love me
No one to care
If
I even
 brush my hair.

My love for you
 is so strong
How can it be wrong?
To want to be
Everything
 to you
Like you
are to me

The pain....

It drags me down
Leaves me feeling like a clown

Makes me cry
I don’t know why

I wish I could know
Why you won’t                 try to make it grow
Tend the garden
Or go-

Why are you here
Why won’t you go?
Do you know
How long must I stand
Being
 beside you
Without your hand?

I need your love
I need your passion
I  need your hunger
I need your sadness
I need the pain to be gone
I need a new dawn

Make it
 ALL
 right
Hold me
Love me
Let me feel your passion
Climb higher
          and higher
Let me know
      I am yours
You could even
        open a few doors
Show me you care
         If you truly dare.
