You Couldn't Help But Wait..

by ABake   Nov 18, 2007


With a smile on your face, your watched me with him;
{Acting} as if I was just a friend when truly I was more,
Your feelings for me growing; thinking of me more often
Meanwhile, my relationship with him was diminishing..

My pain was increasing and you were [always] there;
It was me you wanted, still you wore that amazing smile
Never putting your feelings first; as long as I was happy
Our friendship growing, my relationship slipping away...

Sooner rather than later my relationship ended,
The pain was tremendous; it was [tearing] you apart;
You wiped away my tears and gave me your smile,
You soon became the only reason for my happiness...

While you were [falling in love] I was still moving on,
Our feelings for each other were apparent;
It started to become more obvious day by day,
I wanted you as more than my best friend; but wait...

I was still recovering from the last heartbreak,
There was no way I could deal with that again;
I questioned if you were worth it, could I trust you?
Still terrified of the word love; I [really] wanted you...

You couldn't help but wait for me; finally it was time,
I wanted there to be an [us], so here we are today;
Best friend to lover, quite a transition don't you think?
It does not matter as long as you stay...

[I don't know about the ending. Lol. I hope you enjoy.]

    I loved this story! I was truly captivated and curious as to how it would end. The buildup to the ending was flawless but I think everything happened to past in the end. Just my opinion. The meaning in the ending was beautiful and the poem as a whole amazing. Well done *5/5*

    The last line was so much shorter than the rest.

    Try; "It does not matter as long as you agree to stay with me. . . "

    Or something like that to make it longer.

    You did a wonderful job with the poem. So many people don't try to keep it neat. But, you certainly did with this one. And, I'm glad.

    It looks great.
    AND SOUNDS GREAT.
    Lol.

    It is great.
