Waiting For You

where are you? i am here. waiting for you.

I know that I should not be concerned

When I do not hear from you

For hours and hours on end

But I cannot control the thoughts

That flow through my mind

Waiting for you

 

I trust you, truly I do

There is just that ugly insecurity

That dwells deep within my soul

As it whispers horrid ideas

And plants seeds of deception

Waiting for you

 

The visions that fill my head

Breaks my heart and stimulates

The tears that stream down my face

I know they are not reality

Just a waking nightmare in the day

Waiting for you

 

I try to push them away from me

Desperate to see only the good

Chewing on my bottom lip

As the pictures crash through the wall

That I built in my head

Waiting for you

 

The suspense is nerve wracking

This silence is not golden

I feel the panic settling in

As I pace the worn discolored floor

Wondering where you are and why I am

Waiting for you
