I Waited Until Today
I fitfully half-slept in our half empty bed,
Reaching for my lover,
Assuming you were dead.
Sweet word touched not my longing.
Passion's urge over
N'er rang my yearning phone.
I died a little bit more each lonely day,
Praying if lost
You would perhaps somehow find your way ...
Then, happening stumbled to my very door,
And such the cost
When I saw you've been with her, your whore.
