Waiting

I looked into my reflection,
And fell onto a puddle of despair.
I saw your tainted smile on me,
What about that vanishing act?
Just as the magic started to disappear with you,
The heart shot itself and bled like a baby.

My lungs filled with the polluted truth,
The water as cold as the nights spent without thou.
Eyes blinked, but they wouldn't even twitch,
As if the darkness I was glued to was the body inhabited by your soul.
But I know that you weren't there,
I know that you weren't in the waters.

Falling out of it,
I tried.
Why didn't you save me?
You just kept me waiting all night and day,
As if I were some sort of emotionless ghost.

Nobody whispered good-bye today,
And Somebody begged for my input.
"I need you" has walked into my thoughts,
Bringing me doubts about everything else.

Too bad the mystery is solved,
And the trench coat reveals my feelings.
I haven't seen your smile in forever.
I haven't heard your whispers since you left.
Don't even try to cover-up your tears,
They're magnetically charged to my heart.
Please just get here now.
I hate waiting for you now.

I wrote this when I was waiting for a special person because I thought that I needed to talk to this person as soon as possible.
