I'll be there

I'll be there

A Poem by Armistead Lindsey
"

An old message to an old friend I wish never to see again

"
I'm not going to wait for you to let me in.
I will be the one who stands in the background.
But I will always be watching over you.
I will always be here for you.
And I'm going to stop pushing to the front of the queue.
If you need me, you know where to find me.
If you love something then you must let it go.
This is why I am saving my own heart from this torture.
It may seem like a goodbye, a final 'cheers, '
It's not because I'll always be looking out for you.
I'll be sleeping with on eye in the stars,
Watching over you as you wander the empty night.
I will not wait for you to let me in.
I will wait for you to notice I'm here
