I’ve been caught in a trap <br />of live and learn. <br />Walls crumble down, <br />while my mind burns, <br />with memories <br />that mean so much, <br />just thinking how I want to <br />feel your touch. <br />You’ve told me everything <br />about your life. <br />Now that I want affection, <br />you just fight. <br /> <br />I wanted to be more than friends. <br />You said you’d be there till the end, <br />the very end. <br />Now I see your better way, <br />I need to make some headway. <br /> <br />Moving forward, going to the start. <br />Inching up, making all my marks. <br />Making progress, going on ahead. <br />Back on my feet, getting out the lead. <br /> <br />Now I’ve seen it all from you <br />through the years. <br />So, all I can do is <br />hold back tears. <br />I hold the thought of you <br />close to my heart. <br />But, now I see the need <br />to make a new start. <br /> <br />I wanted to be more than friends. <br />You said you’d be there till the end, <br />the very end. <br />Now I see your better way, <br />I need to make some headway. <br /> <br />Moving forward, going to the start. <br />Inching up, making all my marks. <br />Making progress, going on ahead. <br />Back on my feet, getting out the lead.<br /><br />stan pelfrey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/107-headway/
