I’m not
Second choice
I will not
  Cannot
Wait for you
To finally come around.

I gave you time
To see
To hear
To notice
Me
But now,
With a broken heart
I realize,
It’s your turn.
The game is on
Make a move
And take me as I am
Or sit it out
And loose me
Your choice.
I must leave
  Will not stay
I would have loved you
Forever
If you would just have loved me.
But I’m tired of fighting,
   Hoping,
For something that will never be.
Still
I hate the fact,
That my heart always whispers
“Fight, fight for me,
Please do”
For it’s easy to leave
And meet up with others
But it’s not easy
To stop
Loving you.

We all must choose between
Head
And
Heart
And while my head creates
Distance
My heart holds you close
So,
While I’m walking away
I look over my shoulder
To give you one more chance
What will you do?
Head
Or
Heart?
Your choice.

-E.R.

You're not smooth.
I saw every glance that night.
It was so hard to watch the show
When I could see your glistening steel blue eyes
Searching through my presence.
I was being oblivious.
When you wrapped yourself
Around my left arm
And rested your head
On my shoulder.
I saw your cheeky grin
When my friends looked me
Up and down
In surprise

"Who's your friend?"

I should have kissed you that night.

But I also should have left
Everything in that moment.
Never returning
Messages.
Calls.

I should have left
You.

Then

And

There
