I cried the day you left. I waited for your return.
I waited, myself..on the doorsteps of everything we could be.
I waited.
Hell...I still wait.
The raindrops have ceased now. Alas, my tears have dried. There is that rainbow I've been hoping for. it's gonna be a bright, bright, sunshiny day.
My sunshine today is knowing you exist. Knowing you are cast there..in your beautiful world. Knowing that someone loves you, someone needs you. You exist for people whose lives you affect.
Who is it that could disrupt such a blessing in life....
I sit here...on the steps of time. Waiting. Waiting on you, baby. I told you once before that promises are made to be kept. I never lied to you.
Check the last place I was seen. They will tell you that I was there, waiting on you. Alone in the recesses of my thoughts, I waged a vigil....very little time logged sleeping, or doing anything else...but thinking about you
Do you believe in what your heart says to you?
Have I proved that I don't care?
Did you even think of me?

wow
