The Girl Always Waiting

by Kayla   Sep 3, 2010


My eyes keep on lingering,
Back to the clock on the wall.
I try to fight back, choking on tears,
Praying that you might call.

You keep on telling me,
I'm the one you need.
Yet, you're still home.. with her,
No matter how much I plead.

You tell me over and over,
To just keep waiting on you.
Baby, I've been waiting 3 years,
Even after all you've put me through.

I never thought I'd be,
Here without you by my side.
I should of saw it coming,
The very first time you lied.

No one even begins to compare,
To your green eyes, your dark hair.
They could give me the entire world,
I'd still never need them like air.

I can't do it anymore,
What you're asking isn't fair.
After all I've done for you,
Why should I have to share?

So, I'll lay alone in bed tonight,
Torn up inside, still debating.
It doesn't matter what I say or do,
I'll be the girl always waiting.

Was having some emotional issues tonight... needed to write my thoughts down, help myself feel better and just vent little. This is to my ex-boyfriend Tyler. I hope you're happy...

    Torn between waiting and not waiting.
    Which is the same as pain and love.

    You was never going to be his number one Kayla. And, I am SOO glad that you have come to that conclusion.

    As for the poem itself. You got talent. I just wish you would write more.

    As for what to be inspired about, ANYTHING! Challenege yourself. That's what I do.

    The first stanza couldn't have flowed any better as an opening to the thought.

    Paraphrase- IT WAS EFFIN GREAT!
