Right Before Your Very Eyes

There once was a time not so very long ago, You gave me the peace of mind and gave me your shoulder to cry on. The many problems that plagued me that made my life a living hell, You listened so patiently and attentively you then told me all would be well. You did not mind me breaking down to cry you gently wiped my tears away, Your reassuring smile touched me inside you made me believe in a better day. Now, I can feel I can no longer talk to you because you seem to no longer understand, Keep it all inside is what I must do now it is my problems you no longer want to listen. You are letting someone else cry on your shoulder and it is someone else you are being so understanding to, It is omeone else problems you are now solving but it is mine you have no time to listen to. Right before your very eyes I am breaking and sometimes I wonder do you really care, Right before your very eyes for you I am reaching only to find you are not there. Your compassion belongs to some other woman because it sure as hell is not here with me, To her problems you do not hessitant in solving I just wish you felt that exact same away for me.
