Boredom

Boredom
The story of my life
I sit here looking at the floor through unseeing eyes
Thinking of ways to entertain myself
Television is watched too often
And books no longer hold my attention
You are constantly on my mind
And I wonder how I am going to survive this summer without your touch
I rarely get the chance to even hear your voice
Our lives are so different
Yours is full of activities
And each day holds something new for you
My each passing hour is filld with impatience and irritation
Disappointment and dullness are what continually holds my heart
Without your love,
I feel numb inside
I miss your tender kisses
Your gentle caresses
I cry myself to sleep each night because I miss you so much
You are my life
Yet you are too busy to come and see me
Or even talk to me
And because of the contact I don't have with you,
I sit here staring at a wall
Out of boredom and frustration
