Poem by: truthkillslove
dont tell me i dont love him
dont pretend you know
the tears on the other end of that phone
the ones that came from my eyes
yes i cried to
i loved him and i still do
but what do you expect
i cant make him wait
cant have him sitting there
while i stand up straight
ATTENTION
stand at attention
pay attention private
get your head on straight
dont think about him
dont cry over what you lost
you have a country to fight for
we have a cause that is lost
and im telling you private
you did the right thing
then y in my head
are the screams breaking from within
and why does your voice still cause to me to cry
what about you holds me together inside
and why cant i be me without you
whats this hold you have on me
i dont let myself fall that hard
it cant be this easy
so i pull away
walk away
i have to
no other choice
and when you come around
oh im 8 yrs old again
i got a crush and it wont go away
my love for you cant go away
so many things still get in the way
so tell me it will work
tell me this time it will be easy
it will never be easy
who's going to save me?
whos going to tell me when its time to give up?
"dont stop trying"
"dont lose this one"
im not trying to lose anyone
but to make him sit there and wait
while im over there
it seems so unfair
i cant do it
i wont
but i cant lose him
so i just sit
hold it all in
tell myself its for the best
its for the best
dont think about it twice
its for the best
