Waiting

Waiting

A Poem by Alani
"

Waiting... always waiting for someone

"

You’d make it so much easier, if you called sometime

It’s not like you’re a star; supposedly working on your dreams.

Remember the day you asked: “babe, do you think this will last?”

The same time you said: “it’s up to us…”

 

And I waited on love

All the promises from you

But I’m still waiting for us

Now I’m singing bout you

 

Actually don’t bother calling now

All hope is gone and I think I’m beyond it

Loving you would make me lose my head 

now what did I expect?

 

You’d make it so much easier if you just died 

If you’re with someone else, it’ll drive me insane

 

Cause I’m still waiting for love

Broken promises from you

Cause there’s really no us

You played me like a fool

 

Actually don’t bother calling now

All hope is gone and I think I’m beyond it

Loving you would make me lose my head 

now what did I expect?

 

You always say: “I’ll call you some time”

Please don’t feel obliged

And I wait for you, by the hour

My head stuck to the phone

my heart all alone

 

Actually don’t bother calling now

All hope is gone and I think I’m beyond it

Loving you would make me lose my head 

now what did I expect?


Actually just die instead!

It really really hurts when someone ditch you with all fake promises and hopes to be forever with you and then they just walk away from your life....you wrote really nice!

Welcome friend! :))
Who ever came up with the saying: "Good things come to those who wait"
was obviously never in love. Relationships I equate to a carton of eggs, very
fragile and break when you drop them. I don't think there is a perfect love
because love isn't always perfect. All we can do is move on when it's not
there.

We are all suckers when it comes to love... so fear thee not! :)
Ummm... very strong piece. I find a huge ocean of my beautiful Alani's emotions in this precious write.It's appeared to me like a great meal of the day...lol. You know what?? "HOPE NEVER DIES" ... it's always a STAR which only shined up lonely amid the world of barren nights. It's simply a hope across the country's which never dies so... yeah don't loose your hope cus it's a hope which leads us all our destiny. Yeah.. keeping wait's an other thing... it makes us all feel die n kills every hope of the day but if my beautiful Alani has got some raged potential in her fluffy heart then I am sure she can reach to the next shores of her BEAUTY;) So..never let your HOPE die, SWEETY!! ;)

Last, To me your this heartfelt poem's a very great n an emotional song to me indeed. Well written!!

This poem screamed angry to me. It was sad and heart breaking to think about but wonderfully written. Seems like lyrics to me with a loud melody. I enjoyed reading this today.
