Unfulfilled
Empty promises; that's all your words are.
I care for you, do you even care for me?
I've given so much of myself;
mind, body, and soul, and it seems that
you could care less.
You're all I think about night and day
and you hardly think of me.
I wait for your call or a text.
Sometimes I become so hopeful
that you'll show up at my door,
and yet, it's just another lonely night
that I spend to myself.
Pain and agony bypass my heart
and it cuts deep into my soul,
and you wonder why and think,
"just let it go".
I wonder if there is someone else,
and wonder what they have that I don't.
I try, try, try, and try too many times,
curing the ground that you walk on,
then apologizing unnecessarily.
Why should I apologize?
You've put me on an emotional roller
coaster ride; happiness, sadness, and
anger rush through me like a tidal wave.
Happy when I see you, sad when I cannot,
and angry when you don't even care to try.
I care more about you than I do myself.
My feelings go ignored because I love.
I love someone who doesn't love me back.
