BALLAD Poem: tell me, by ind!go r@bbit

You make exceptions
just for her
Tell me,
who am I waiting for?

I’ve done my time,
I’ve shown my worth
Gave my all,
so why’s it hurt?

Our bond’s been tested,
walked through fire
Your eyes still search
for her desire

I’m still right here,
don’t want to show
I’m still not sure
if you’re here though

I want to trust,
the past says no
‘till you decide
to let us go

I’m sure it’s me,
my trauma shows
Abandonment
wounds only grow

I hear your words
I know that voice
Tell me,
have I any choice?

Your change is raw,
my efforts spent
Do you still want
to go again?

Lost my shine
Just common goods
Ironic eyes,
misunderstood

Tell me
Tell me
Tell me
