I Wait

As i read
all the words you wrote
the pain
it started to grow

a sharp pain
inside my chest
my heart is breaking
but i wont shed a tear

my love for you
i have shown
my feelings
ive made known

and still
i am avoided
you push aside
the one you once loved

am i not good enough
or is there nothing there
dont feel bad for me
just let me know

iLL ask
but you wont reply
my existence
is fading

each time
i am ignored
i want you
do you want me
iLL never know

asking seems pointless
waiting is meaningless
but i wait

for you
are the one
the one who makes me smile
can stop the pain

im miserable
waiting day after day
but you dont ahve to say a word
just listen to me
when i say
iLL always love you
