I Can't

You say you'll call in your own time,
"I'm busy, its not possible at this present time" you tell me.
I can tell by the way you talk I've annoyed you,
So I leave quickly and wait patiently for the phone to ring.
You tell me to do things I want to do,
But I can't when all I want to do is see you.
What happened to when you used to care?
When you'd say the right thing and always be there?
I wouldn't wait around, you'd call me in a flash,
But now times are changing, maybe I should just accept that.
Wanting reassurance from you,
But getting nothing at all,
Trying to tell myself to think positive,
After all, you're the guy I fell for.
I can't keep on telling myself you love me,
I can't keep on telling myself you care,
I barely know you anymore,
You're barely even there.
Whatever I say, I say wrong,
Whatever I do, I do it wrong,
You get mad and shout.
I don't want to give up on you,
I want to see us to the very end,
But I can't wear a mask anymore,
I can't brush our troubles under the carpet anymore,
I want us to get sorted, once and for all.
I just want to understand you more.
Maybe I'm out of line,
Maybe I'm to blame,
Maybe, just maybe, we should go our separate ways.
All I want to hear is that you DO love me,
you DO still care,
Hold me in your arms and let me stay right there.
Let me talk to you about whats on my mind,
Whether it be good or bad,
I don't want us to fight.
Please, don't get mad,
Just tell me whats on your mind.

    becky... you are my true star. No matter what I will always love you. Friends. BEST friends. For life. This poem was sooooo emotional it made me cry. I know you have a hard time with Greg and from others putting you two down. But things will work out for the best. You're strong and amazing and any guy would be insane to let you slip away. And Greg isn't insane. He won't let you slip. xxx
