I Have
I have gotten used to
coming home to be alone
I have gotten used to
not questioning where you go
and I have gotten used to
a short call to say hello
but I have not gotten used to
the way my heart feels ohh so low
I have leaned to be okay
with talking only briefly
our schedules don't match up at all
but someday you will see me
I have learned you never come
when you say you will
and I have learned not to expect
the actions said by you
I would like to be taken out
just once in a blue moon
I don't ask for much you see
just to be with you
I would like to lay one night
knowing you won't have to leave
I would like to wake up to
you sleeping next to me.
But no, you can't
not right now
maybe in a year
should I wait when my heart breaks?
every day I feel the tears
I am lonely and in love
with someone who loves me
or so I think,
but where oh where is he?
