Ridge Mayberry Poet Rhyme

How Long?

How long shall I wait?
How long shall I wait,
For you to be mine.
Ladies fall in line
For just one date with me,
But you’re the one I want to be
My girlfriend
Until the end.
But you continue to push me away
And at the end of the day
I ask, how long?
My friends say you’re wrong,
They say you don’t deserve me
But they can’t see
That I love you.
If only you loved me, too.
And at the end of the day
My friends all say
How long will you wait?
How long can I wait?

Lawrence Ingle December 22, 2008 at 11:24 PM my apologies, I at first thought you were a lady..but I'm seeing you're very first poem now and I'm lost for words in expressing how sorry I am to have mistaken you for the opposite sex....forgive me please...the name is different and I believe it threw me off somewhat because of me having never run across such an unusual name..I like the name though, it's a rare one....Lawrence in Lou. Thanks again for all your comments...I love this one too.Oh yea check my race roach out..baby bug...ha!
