#10 Time

sitting on my bed
staring at my phone
ready to lift my head
if your message makes a tone

even in the night
can't sleep at all
hoping that my knight
will text me soon

long days pass
just me and my wineglass
waiting for him to join
but like throwing a coin
there are two sides of life
the winning and the losing part

I wrote him yesterday
cause I wasn't able to wait
but I'm still watching the black display

You'll say you had no time
you say things will be fine
but every time I wait a while
I lose the hope standing by

if you would care
you'd take the time
to answer my calls
to text me sometimes

all I'm asking for
are five minutes a day
so that I know you're alive
don't feel ignored

You know
I'm not a fool
won't stand in a row
with all the others

take the time I want you to
or else I'll leave you here
don't want to argue anymore

hope you see
that this is still me
someone you loved
cause you spent time with me

I won't forget you
but I won't forgive you
all I know is that
your time is over

It's done for me
time for you
to say goodbye
or to stay
and watch me
healing with time

the chance is yours
give me your time
or tomorrow I'm gone
sorry to say bye
