I dream of a fairy-tale love affair <br />And I'd imagined you as my fantasy lover <br />I show you love but you don't seem to care <br />Come to realize that it's all pretend, I'd later discover <br />memories from way back then <br />Comes to mind, like deja-vu, all over again <br />Surely you can run but, you can't hide <br />What you fighting for? You can't deny <br />I'd become more than just a friend <br />I belong to you as you to me, better to be together than alone <br />May we find love this time around <br />Remember the time when your arms wrapped warmly 'round my waiste <br />Remember the time when you showed interest in me, baby <br />We tried didn't work but here we've been given a second chance <br />I said little and you were more opened to converse <br />I'd better let you go before I get hurt <br />If anything was to happen here after <br />I better had been careful and shield my emotions <br />As we move into this without guilt or shame <br />Is there not someone involved? <br />So, Why do you need me? Am I the part-time lover? <br />Are you truly happy with this person? <br />If you are, than, I can't and I won't be your part-time lover<br /><br />Marcquiese Burrell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/part-time-lover/
