I can't wait

by Jessica   Jan 20, 2006


I can't wait
My heart can't take it
I won't stay
And watch you
Fall in love
When my heart
Is loving you
With all the passion
I possess
You tell me
I know
But you don't
You don't know
How I cry because
Of your words
You don't know
How I'm dying inside
Because your love
Is for her
You told me
You'd never let me go
But here you are
Giving me away
Even though
You've proven yourself
An ass my heart
Still can't let you go
Not when your kiss
Blows my mind
And takes my breath away
Not when your touch
Makes me shiver from
Head to toe
But can my heart
Take all this
All this pain
This entire heart ache
All these tears
All these lies?
I can't wait
I can't stay
I can't cry for you
When you can't even
Cry for me
I can't wait
Not for you
Not when I get
Nothing in return
Not the love in your eyes
Not the love
In your heart
Not your time
Nothing for me
So I have
Nothing for you
Not a thing
Not a single word
But my heart has plenty
When you come looking
Just ask and you
Will receive because
My heart is waiting
Even though it is breaking
It's here
Loving you
And waiting for you.

    Whoa.You really hit on some truths here!This is amazing, maybe it's because I can relate so well(spent the last 15 years waiting, pining away for a love I thought was the one, recently had to force myself to accept it's not to be, at some point we most let go and move on-so don't keep your heart waiting too long, but at the same time never stop believing or give up on love-What the heart knows today, the head will understand tomorrow)The emotion, the sadness is just so overwhelming in this.This is a tragic yet beautiful piece and says so much.I really like this, --excellent poem.
