Waiting.....

Why is is that you don't care
is it a feeling that was never there
why do you push me away
is it that you don't want me
in some sort of weird way
i look at my empty bed
and wish that you were there
but knowing where you are
just doesn't seem fair
once again i fall asleep
with no-one by my side
a thought of where you are
i cant help but cry
cancer? i don't understand
but i don't like it
due to the fact it wont allow me
to hold your warm loving hand
Baby i know you wont be well
you will feel sick
you will hurt
you will ache and maybe sigh
but always remain hopeful and never loose hope
'cause you might die
be strong hold your head high
remember I'm not far away
in-case you need to cry
and when things start to get better and your smile appears again
i will be waiting with two shiny glasses
and a bottle of champagne
