Forever



How many times do I have to wait for you to get your act together

How many tears do I have to cry before the pool gets too big for you to swim in

And how many words do I have to say to make you understand that these feelings won't go away

Because you weren't just a random guy to me, with you I wanted a family

And it seemed like you reciprocated the feelings for me

So I don’t understand what you mean when you say

that your feelings have just gone away

 

It seems to me like your feelings are still there

and I know you still care

so stop acting like you don't miss us

because this this isn't fair for me

 

Love is patient so I feel inclined to wait for you

But how long is it going to take for you

to come reclaim the space that I have made for you

and realize everything that I gave to you

including my heart

which will always be saved for you

 

I'm half filled with the promises that you only kept half the time

and I’m waiting for half that time to combine

so that one day I can call you mine again.

How much longer will I have to wait for us to be together

Because I really don't want you to keep me waiting

forever
