we knew each other for about a year <br />did every thing for each other <br />anyone could ever believe <br /> <br />this chick <br />you knew for only two months <br />on and off <br />knowing we're having a rough spot <br />you told her how you feel <br />and that we are expecting <br />and she should have backed off <br />and let you sort things out <br />but instead <br />asked you to marry her on Christmas day <br /> <br />I still wake up at night <br />reaching out to you, to hold you close <br />then I check my phone <br />to see if I have a missed text or call <br />like we used to do when we couldnt sleep <br />then reality sinks in <br />that you rather be with her <br />holding her close <br />then like every other night <br />I cry myself back to sleep <br /> <br />I'm tired of waiting on the sideline <br />waiting and hoping <br />you see how she is <br />and that you will come running back <br /> <br />this time <br />I will be on the sideline <br />waiting and hoping <br />that she does the same to you <br />like you did to me <br />and I will be there to laugh at you <br />and the huge mistake that you made<br /><br />Sara Panicali<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/waiting-and-hoping-2/
