I Can Wait

Sitting here for six long months..

Waiting for a chance to say something. 

I lost that chance.

Now I sit here listening to him talk..

 

Listening to him talk about how much he loves her..

Listening to him talk about the time they spend together..

Listening to him talk about how he believes she could be the one..

 

Listening to him say all of the things I wish we could be..

All the things I wish we could do..

 

But I know.

 

I know she is better for him.

I know she makes him happy.

I know she brings a never ending smile to his beautiful face.

I know she is what makes his blue eyes sparkle they way they do. 

 

I know she is better for him.

I don't want to tell him and end up getting hurt,

hurt because he loves her like he could never love me.

 

So, I will wait..

Wait for my chance to come again.

Dallas, this poem strikes at the heart of every woman that had to sit back and watch the one that they love wax 'poetic' about another woman. It sings with your huge heart of sacrifice and lost love... Obviously, it saddens me to read it, but you did a beautiful job of communicating the feeling precisely. Nice writing, my friend.

Poignant and beautiful write my friend, as a writer I can feel your soul and heart and you're truly blessed with very kind soul. These words define the class you have as a human being, I really felt sad while reading your poetry as I can feel your pain and sacrifice...How unlucky guys can be sometimes when they don't value diamonds...Great write my friend, simply amazing
