I've been awaiting this aching pain
it's absence slowly driving me insane
i knew it was all to good to be true
today was the day that i lost you
i sit on the shady street corner
in the hot 103 degree weather
i squish an ant as it crawls near
i begin to cry, unafraid that someone will hear
i sit
i sit, and cry
i cry not out of sadness
but stupidity
how could i have trusted you?
why did i let you in?
why did i let you torture me so sweetly,
as i sat awaiting this painful sin
i lick a falling tear
and taste the saltiness of betrayal
my heart feels as though it is about to fail
i sit no longer
i get up and walk
because waiting for you
is like awaiting the soft desert rain;
pointless and full of pain
