Be Quiet

be quiet don't speak because I know you once did picked me I am so hurt don't you see why are you now leaving me? be quiet stand still you know you left me and went against my will. as I wipe a tear off my cheek it's you I will always seek. be quiet sit up straight look at me right here in my face, can you hear the fast pace of my heart? I am so upset, so where do I start. be quiet please sit down I don't want you to ever to leave town, once you said you love me what has changed ? now after a year of being married and I took your last name. be quiet please hold me in your arms maybe the smell of my perfume and the touch of my skin will help you remember where our love first began. be quiet but go if you must you know you was the only man I could ever trust. I wanted to be the one to hopefully carry you a son. be quiet and get out of my face there is no man who could ever take your place.

Very moving. Touching sentiments. Much sorrow for any reality in those words. Thanks for sharing!
