Seven Good Years

Seven good years
That's how long I've waited for you to dry my tears
Seven good years
you left me all weak and weary
Seven good years
And losing you was my biggest fears

For seven good years
I've been thinking about you
Thinking about all the sweet things you do
All the fun times too
But I guess they didn't matter to you

Fighting the pain
For seven years
Yet till this day all my trying has been in vain
I've tried to love live and forget but all the effort has also been in vain
Seven good years of hope, but what did I gain?

I had faith
That one day you'd come and we'd out number what people call fate
But I guess there's nothing like that it's all fake

So I've been drinking
Rolling it up I been smoking
Hoping to get your attention
But you've made no sudden action
So I guess that for seven good years
It's my time I been wasting...

[Coyote Poetry]

Waiting for seven years. That is a long time. I like the story and the frustration in the poem. I agree with the ending. Come a time to learn. We are wasting our time. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Very lyrical, would live in a musical setting. Strong, hurting words, yet poetic.

Exceptional poem of heartbreak.
