Am I not enough?

To my boyfriend

Sitting here by the phone

Waiting for your message

Glancing at the time

1 minute

10 minutes

30 minutes

60 minutes

No sign of you

No message no nothing

And then I see

Your on this game

This game that tears lives apart

On this game for hours plus

Yet no message to me

No never a thought of me

Always I

Having to make the first move

Always I 

Having to message you first

 

Am I not enough for you?

Do I not make you happy?

If so, why then?

Why does a game come before me?

What will it take

For you to not neglect me

I do not know

I wish I knew

What I could do to be enough for you

A powerful emotional poem which speaks volumes of today's modern society where priorities are not to people but to machines,why is it so importan to win at a game?, what is the point in just beating a score over and over again/ what does it prove in the end? it proves that the person has no focus other than mindless stupid games which most sane people would ignore,it proves a lck of sensitivity and an empty soul,perhaps there is an ice box where the heart used to be.
This lonely heart this girl who has been so sorely neglected needs to find a new true love who will devour her every wish.
I love those lonely heart adverts which i see in newspapers (NO TIME WASTERS PLEASE) WELL THIS GUY NEEDS TO TAKE A HIKE

Nicely said! I hear ya on that one and u try to talk to ur boyfriend about it and they just get mad!?... They don't understand! That's lame

Okay, so I see what you're upset about here.
But the truth is, all guys are into video games and such, it's just in their nature. my own boyfriend does the same thing. I told him I missed him a lot, and he sets his game aside for awhile occasionally to talk to me.
and then just recently he got me into this computer game, and now I play that instead of talking to him sometimes. like karma, you know? and he misses me a lot too. so that's that.
