The Thoughts That Chew

waiting for something that won't deliver.

I will wait for you

even if you never come

-

I just wish you could see what goes in my head.

then you would know

how desperate I am for a little love.

and how much I love everyone

because I know how it feels
to be alone
to be up late at night

with no one to call

and nobody to answer.

I will cherish you
and our memories

no matter how much it hurt
no matter those things you said

I will forever be the girl
to
"Forgive and forget."

Why are you so okay
with never talking to me

I wonder if they
still think about our memories

I wonder if they stay up at night
and think about me

the way I think about them.

but again,

I know I will wait forever

for someone to never show up.
