I'll Be Waiting

by Matt Petullo - Scorpio

Pain, sorrow, suffering, sadness
All these feelings you have been going through
Not daring to tell me
Keeping it all to yourself

If only you would have told me!
If only I knew…
I could have fixed it, made it better
You gave me no time

I am happy now
Can't you see it in my eyes?
I hope you can't see all the pain
That is in me from you leaving

I know I told you that I would wait
And that I will, my love
But I hope you understand that every minute you are away
My heart aches to be close to yours in a warm embrace

I still think about you every night
Right as I lay my tired head down on the pillow
And silently, ever so softly,
I begin to cry

Wishing I could be sure
That you were thinking the same thing
I know you used to
But that has all changed now

I feel so helpless
Just having to sit and wait
Your feelings could change so fast
You may never come back to me

Just know that I will be waiting
For the day you run up to me and hug me
You know in your heart, my Angel, 
That I would wait forever for you

Reason for writing:

    This poem, once again, is written to and about my, well, "girlfriend". Although she left me, she told me that she might come back, but she needs some time to herself. Whatever. But, I will wait for her.
