I know I’ll never have you
All to myself -
I know I’ll spend my whole life
Up on a shelf ...
- - -
Waiting for your sweet face
Coming in the door...
Waiting for your warm embrace
‘Till you leave me for
- - -
The other girl who wants to be
Lonely;
Until the times when you feel like
Leaving me.
- - -
Can it be your honey charm
Smoothing out the pain?
Can it be your loving arms
Shielding off the rain?
- - -
I realize that you love me,
And that you love her too -
I’ll wait for you and take the rest,
After she is through.

I'm so glad that stuff is forever gone from this life. I do pray that your talking of a past love and everything is mush better now. But whatever the case I do like your projections and it's good to see you on top again.

I don't think you should sit on that shelf and wait for anybody! Go out there and meet somebody new! Great poem!

My friend-
Dusting off the 'things'
on the shelf can sure give
you a look at where you've been.

Wonderfully tender, as always.
