Hope

I’m sick of shedding these tears, I’m sick of being blue.
I could write everything out, but you still wouldn't have the slightest clue.
Sobbing on the phone, gasping for air,
You wanna say things will be fine, but no you don’t dare.
You've seen me hurting but you still can’t comprehend why.
And even though you've inflicted pain on me, I just can’t say goodbye.
I still hope you regain the love you once had for me.
That piece of hope is what makes me refuse to flee.
I want to be more than just your friend and I know my love won’t fade.
I just hope that my patience doesn't result to me being dismayed.

A friend once told me "Every opportunity has a shelf life"...ironically, their friendship disappeared from my hands. So, I get this so deeply. If nothing else, at least you're fortunate enough to be given the opportunity to at least say your love is there & its real, even if it's never reciprocated. This writing obviously hit me hard. lol So, thank you for this. Great to meet you, Maricel! =D
