I Asked You
I asked you to wait...
I had noothing
but love for your pretty face
You were made of royalty
I was born into poverty
this could not be our ever after
I asked you to wait...
I felt a sense of warmth towards you
Your smile a constant reminder of joy
After a night of passionate love
I could not accept this poverty
I needed time to be a success
I asked you to wait...
I needed you to wait my dove
This poem written years later
In a life graduared from poverty
Teary eyes,a shattered soul
Your fragile heart in his clumsy paws
I watch in great grief
I thought of saving you
But your ring shun to bright
causing me to act lightly
And turn the other cheek
I walk away disgruntled
You failed to wait for me.
