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 .
