I Live For The Day

A sad love poem.

Oh I live for the day

when I wouldn't be taken for granted

when he would wake up

and realize what he had

standing right here

in front of him.

That here was a woman

who would love him with 

everything in her power

who would stand by his side

no matter what happened

who would cheer him on

comfort him in his sorrows

treasure him for who he is.

That he would see

I am always here for him

waiting on him to turn to me

no matter what the time is

available to him 24 hours

7 days a week

always there putting him first

never ever taking him for granted.

That I am always striving 

to make myself better for him

wanting him to be proud of me

hoping he would take notice of me

once again like he use to

and love me for who I am

because I am so in love with him.

Oh I live for the day

when I wouldn't be taken for granted

when he would wake up

and realize what he had

standing right here

in front of him.

Men and women long for the same, though men are often too filled with BS to admit it. Your poem sums up a universal desire. It is handled with such dexterity and passion that it's as powerful as it gets. Wonderful work. And should he de real, the man's a fool not to realise what he had.

Beautiful and you said it well. =D I agree with what everyone else have already said about this poem. Guys and girls look for the same thing, it's just guys,sometimes, don't say it like we do. lol. But I love the message and meaning here. A very powerful poem! I enjoyed reading this. Thanks for sharing.
Love love this poem! =)

I agree with Raven 100%. You deserve all that and so very much more Teresa.
A beautiful heart felt poem.

People tend to take for granite what is right in front of there eyes, hence the expression "don't know what you got till it is gone." I know many feel the same way as you expressed in this piece.

Heart strings plucked Sis, this is so sad and yet so beautiful for to have a love 24/7 is wonderful and always to be loved and not simply taken for granted is dreamy. Keep em' coming

Beautiful poem and tells a so real tale that most people can't recognise...where love really is :)

[Raven Starhawk]

Most women long for the same thing. Even some men do. You have every right to be desired and cherished as anyone should be.

Oh dear, you need to strive to make yourself better for you, and then he will want to be around that better person for she will be something that captivates his heart.
