I followed you like a puppy lost It was like I was an employee and you the boss Waiting on you, keeping you served Begrudging me of the of love that I deserved Soon as I get ahead, you slow me down with bumps Every smooth moment overturned with lumps It was a hard job keeping you satisfied With no love from you, I often cried Fed up with keeping you pleased Never once did you catch me, when I feel to my knees I was like your waitress daily in various uniforms No longer do I need you body heat to stay warm You are frosty as the arctic inside In my heart, there's no room for you to reside I'm not taking orders anymore Case closed, relationship over Both my feet are out the door My love is removed from your menu Taking it elsewhere away from your venue |

BRAVO!!!!Good for you...no one should be a waitress to the one they love....it should be mutual sharing and caring about each others needs. I am glad you have found someone more worthy of the precious love you have to give. **hugs** Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

RosePetal - oh how you speak the truth. Sounds like someone I'm intimately familiar with. At times it does seem to be one sided, even though it takes two... BC |
