This Is How I Feel

I would have waited for you,
Until the sun went down,
Until our love faded,
Until the water we drank ran out,
You could have called me,
Waited until I was at home,
Dragged me out into the rain,
And told me you were sorry,

I would have told you,
What you meant to me,
Had we done this properly,
But now I am left,
With all this hard work,
And an empty head,
That used to be filled,
With you.

You could have taken me for a walk in the sun,
Sat me down by a pond,
And poured your heart out,
Could have ordered me a pizza,
Spelled out “I am sorry” in peperoni,
And held me until I was still,
Then I would have said I am sorry too,
It was a pleasure to get to know you,
And I still would have supported you.

Now we have to do this the hard way,
With a blank screen and a fake smile,
As I make my way to work,
And try to mend,
Whilst wondering what to do,
With my love for you.
