The waiting is consuming,
It's a constant ticking clock,
Every second lasts an hour,
All else has been forgot.
The phone is at my fingertips,
The checking never stops,
But the light remains unblinking,
Keeping silent in its thoughts.
The longing grows unthinkable,
It's a pounding in the heart,
The butterflies are frantic
All hope is nearly lost.
I'm sitting on the edge of time,
It's racing slowly fast,
Waiting for just one small word,
Abandonment of any costs.
But it's unlikely that the wait,
Will bring the sweet hello,
The simple sound I'm waiting for,
For you to just say so.

We're standing in the rain,
As it's thundering around us,
Yet I don't hear a thing,
The world so oddly still.

The turmoil and the pain,
Shared from your eyes to mine,
Reflected in the storm,
Winds howling in the sky.

We're standing at the beginning,
The minutes, months and years,
Flashing before our eyes,
Until the door is closed.

I still feel the pain, the heartache,
when you ripped my heart in two,
I was falling for so long,
After the day I found you.

You left my emotions reeling,
Head spinning, so confused,
Couldn't catch my breathe,
From running after you.

Don't know where the time went,
Or how it went so wrong,
As the storm reaches its crescendo,
I turn and then we're gone.
