Click hereLongtime lover rejected
dear lover,
I am dying and you cannot see it
Daily a disease rocks havoc upon me
But you do not hear it
Every night pain lashes me
You will not ever feel it.
My love why won't you see my tears
A light in my soul grows more dim
Every time you are to tired to love me
Fear twist inside of me at bed time
When you lay weary with sleep and
no concern for me in your heart, in your mind
You are sleeping next to me but I am alone
You do not touch me
You will not caress me
You can't smile for me
And you have not loved me in so long
I am a creature staved for affection
I grovel at your feet desperate
I jump and prance and shimmey
Hoping for a crumb, a morsel of caring
My longing for romance is wasted I know
Cravings fora warm embrace remain forever more unanswered
I must content myself with whatever you can spare
But it is so very hard to wait for care that will not be
To rage in silence for my love that has been rejected
Every morning my body lies still for a second in the dim dawn
A hope of a tender caress, a passionate kiss
Flares brightly, hypnotically for a moment
But is dashed quickly, firmly with the clacking of keys in the distant
I am alone in our bed, my love irreverent, my hope dead again
My small wish of a kernel of passion
Is lashed to nothing with your indifference
I dread the coming night
The fear, the rejection of my love
I know again I will be rebuffed, I will be put to the side
Why can you not see I am dying for your love
You have time to eat, time to play , time to be joyful
You have such happiness but not with me , never with me
Can't you see how it hurts to be excluded from your smile
Don't you feel me burn with loneliness when you turn from me
I am a sad sight, a pitiful sight to be sure
I am a long time lover rejected.
