Staring at these pixels,
words
and images
On my screen
It's cracked now
Just a little damaged
Been that way for a while
Kinda like my heart
But I continue to read and write
All day long
Waiting to see your smile
Waiting to get that one message...
I love you
It will come
Like your words always do
I may have to wait
Waiting...
Waiting......
Oh! How much I hate to wait!
I know I'll get the message
Soon enough
Until then I'll wear this smile
Staying strong
Acting tough
My particular favorite is...
***Hey babe, how's your day?
I know it's been awhile
But can I please
Just see you smile?***
Cause you know how I love to rhyme,
And although you're not a poet
You still try and that's more than fine!
Cause then you say...
I'm a poet and didn't know it!
Every time!
Staring at this cracked screen
Is what gets me through my day
Just like fixing
My cracked heart
Is what gets you through
You don't have to wait very long
To see
I love you too.
