I'm Here Waiting

You say you don’t want to hurt me,
but you're killing me

You say you met the love of your life and you just want to be friends,
then why do you hold me, kiss me and tease me?

Do you not realize what your touch does to me?

I want to kiss you so hard your mouth will bruise
and touch you in places that only lovers touch
I want to feel you in my bed like so long ago.

I hate you for these feeling you awoken in me.
The promises that will never be fulfilled,
the love that I’m afraid I’ll never feel for someone else,
the urges that only you can make go away;
but everything belongs to someone else

I hate myself for not being able to walk away,
for staying in this place waiting for you to walk by
with a touch, a whisper, a moment …..

you won’t set me free, you make me wait because you can.
and I wait for something that belongs to someone else.

I’d laugh at myself if I wasn’t so busy crying.

Passion and power are in your words.

I can feel the pain you have inside, and it is a pain most of us go through. You express it well and i feel sorry for whom ever the man is, because he has no idea what he is missing.

Great write!

I feel I can relate and the emotion is there.
Nicely written! If a person doesn't realize what they got do they even deserve it? Lets just hope they figure out it's there someday.

Love doesn't always work out in the ways that we seem to think it should. Would you rather have had the experience you have had with this person, or never known the emotions they brought out in you at all? Maybe this was all practice for something bigger :) A lot of the time writing comes very much in handy when we are upset, but don't worry, someday there will be another happy time that you can write pages and pages about. Keep your chin up hun :)

Love,
K

Wow. A lot of emotion in there. All though it does pack a powerful punch and almost makes me want to hit the person who does not see the person who wants them so terribly. It is very powerful and very good.

All one note of misspelling I could see:
Do you not realize what your touch dose to me?" - I think you mean "does" in that line. I know it is a little thing, but just in case you might I have missed it. ^^
