Poetry With Me

Day 1

I’m waiting… I’m not quite sure what for but I’m here.

Day 2

I’m still here waiting for you. Do you see me yet? Can you feel the way my heart aches for you to respond?

Day 3
I haven’t given up yet. I’m still lost in the fog of you.

Day 59

I’m patient. I can wait for you to understand.

Day 300

Time passes ever so slowly when you are waiting to be heard. Waiting to be seen. But time passing doesn’t make something less valuable it becomes more and more rare.

Day 450

I’m irritated today. I’ve waited. I’ve been patient. But still I’m finding no relief. Its an endless fog you’ve left for me.

Day 1000

I must be patient no matter how bad it seems. So here I am waiting and hoping you will soon see.

Day 3589

It’s hopeless now isn’t it? I must face the violins. It’s as if they’ve been playing this entire time but I never heard them.

I scream I wail I curse your name. And yet I’m the one waiting here again.

Day 5000

I’ll move on. You’ll see. And then it will be you waiting on me.

Day 5001

I didn’t mean that. I could never move on. Not really. I’m trapped here. Trapped in the between.

Day 6504

You moved on. It must be. Or maybe you never really cared for me. Maybe I made up this version of you inside my head. I created it and now it’s left me for dead.

Day 99999

I remember every word you said. I can peel back the emotion from it now. I see that I have taken too much time. I’ve been laying here picking up every speck of salt. counting down the flakes as if that were normal at all.

Day 4897563

I hope by now your memories are sick of me. I’ve wasted so much time. So much energy.

I’m weak. I’m tired. I’m drained.

Day 8758127

………………………………………..

Day 108562347

I wish my heart would let me let go. . .

You can’t even hear me anymore.

With Love,
