I sit there < !signature-->Silently I wait for the other end of the line to ring Hearing the ringing brings such joy to my heart I'm waiting for you For you to pick up the phone To say hello To make everything seem ok Just for this moment in time I want to hear your voice I know that it would make me feel whole Everything seems to be wrong without a sign of you The words in my head don't complete my sentences So many others can tell me the same things, But they don't mean as much as when it comes from you Why won't you answer the darn phone Where could you be It doesn't matter anyway I didn't really need you Not tonight I can solve my problems on my own I keep hearing the rings As I slowly hang up the phone I sit here Silently The phone rings On the caller ID I see your number Now you are the one waiting Waiting on the other end of the line You want to hear my words You want to hear my voice Just as I reach to pick up the phone, the ringing stops I didn't need to talk to you anyway Our problems can solve on there own Just not now Just not right now Love, Lady Live in my world just once and you'll find yourself enraptured.

*giggling with delight* this hurt my heart for you. I would have probably grabbed the phone and been very breathless as I answered. *sigh* oh well that is just me. Much love to you from me. Love I leave with you my friend whether it be in your life or of yet the essense of your dreams. http://path2riches.com |
