Still Want You

by Heather Williams - Libra

4 o'clock yesterday you showed up to work
In what used to be my favorite shirt
Looking at you I forgot I'm not allowed
To smile sweetly at you
Eating during my lunch break
The rain fell from the sky
In huge heavy sheets
You grabbed my arm
Trying to shove me under the skies
From the comfort of the warm building
And as your warm hand wrapped around my arm
My only thoughts were that you were touching me again
And not that you were so gone
I'll just try to remember that you weren't that great
All the nights I layed on the bed
Staring at the phone
Waiting for you to call me back
And as I would cry myself to sleep
The ringing phone would never disturb me
In spite of all of it, I still want you
