Again

Here I am again,

Sitting alone again,

Even though you are right here,

The emptiness is more that I can bear.

The unwanted pill of rejection,

Aggravates the pain from exclusion.

I wonder if its all my fault,

The times I failed to be the bigger person,

The times I let

My personal urges take over.

I guess those are things I have to work on,

Those are things I have to fix.

I apologize,

For making you feel

The need to protect your emotions,

I guess that’s my job;

And I have gravely failed.

I want to be there for you,

I want to be your man,

But for me to be your man,

I want you to be my woman.

Trust me, believe me, love me.

You are what I want,

Lets just be together,

And look together,

Into the brightest of futures.
