I'm Gonna Try Again

by BreakMyWingsAndRun   Nov 12, 2007


The phone rings,
And your name comes up on the screen.

My finger moves to push the button,
But I'm held back because you're the one who caused all the hurting.

I wonder if you've changed,
Or if you're still the same.

I want so badly to be with you once again,
But my trust is very fragile it will break not long after it bends.

I don't know what to do,
Because my heads going around in circles missing you.

I know if I answer the phone,
You'll start to play our song.

You'll want to get back together,
And say that other girl is whatever.

I'm gonna answer the phone tonight,
So we can be together and everything will be alright.

I sit here and await your call,
Can't wait to hear your greeting "How are you baby doll"

I answer the phone,
But hear no song.

I only hear a simple hey,
Not what I expected you to say.

There's a wedding and you want me to be there,
You finally found someone who actually cares.

As you tell me these words that pierces my heart,
I try to explain but don't know where to start.

I show up on that beautiful Saturday night,
My head filled with wonder my heart with fright.

I'm the one sitting on the very back row crying,
While part of me is dying.

I'm the one who made the mistake,
Even though my heart was yours to take.

    I found my mouth hanging open when I read the ending. This poem kept my interest all through out and I don't think it could be written any better.
