I Wait For You

Amid a stretch of darkness ,
You are my only hope ,
I know I  have disappointed you ,
But with that I was even hurt.
I want to cry but nothing comes out ,
These unshed tears are waiting to be consoled by  you ,
I regret my life ,
For I stand helpless .
Begging for forgiveness ,
My legs have given up ,
But I won't  .
You say you won't  look at me ,
Then why do I see your silhouette ,
I know your standing at the window, 
Waiting for me to go .
But I say it very loud and slow ,
"I won't leave unless you forgive me ."
I know I have wronged you,  
Misguided by my conscience.
But I promise you that won't  happen again, 
The heavy downpour ,
Is the reflection of my emotions ,
Standing here I know I deserve worst .
No one comes out to look at me ,
But I know you will ,
I am  freezing here ,
Clattering my teeth I wait for you .

Emotive and expressive poem. Sometimes when trust if broken and the other person won't forgive it is best to forgive yourself of what you did wrong and move on having learned what you can do right in a relationship will help build a new one instead of tearing it down.
