I sigh as I think of you, sitting all alone.
Waiting and listening for a ring from the phone.
Knowing I Love you but that you love another.
Chewing on my lip, my heart all aflutter.
Wishing that somehow, your attention turned to me.
I imagine what our life together could surely be.
Can't you feel the connection between you and I.
I sit back waiting, and again slowly sigh.
My mind on you always though your so far away.
I just live for the moment, and make it through the day.
My nights filled with loneliness and yearning for you.
My days filled with endless wanting it's true.
I have to get over this, it's driving me mad.
Seeing you with another makes me so sad.
So I put pen to paper to let my feelings all out.
You dont know what it costs me to not scream and shout.
I sigh as I think of you sitting all alone.
Waiting and listening for a ring from the phone.

Not whats really happening with my Life and my Love, just a musing on a fine sunny afternoon.

This is an incredible write. Can pertain to so many who sit and wait ...then have to let go. Distance isnt always the enemy but isnt always a friend. Well written

Your musing is very good, rhyming excellant, content really good, and I think most of us can,in some way or another, relate to those feelings.
Good luck in the contest...Sue
