Don't Wait
Don't wait until I stand in the mirror
Filled with self loathing
To tell me in beautiful
Don't wait until I'm crying and broken
Crumpled in your arms
To tell me you still need me
Don't wait until our time is rushed
Too short to take things slow
To make love to me again
Don't wait until I stop pleading
Asking for your presence
To be by my side
Don't wait until I stay
Only because you're all I've ever known
To tell me I'm all you'll ever need
Filled with self loathing
To tell me in beautiful
Don't wait until I'm crying and broken
Crumpled in your arms
To tell me you still need me
Don't wait until our time is rushed
Too short to take things slow
To make love to me again
Don't wait until I stop pleading
Asking for your presence
To be by my side
Don't wait until I stay
Only because you're all I've ever known
To tell me I'm all you'll ever need

Time is too precious to waste and this is a beautiful, heart breaking piece.

Too many times people put things off until it's too late. When we do it leaving to get to work we start thinking of excuses to tell the boss about all the things that delayed us. But in love there are no excuses, no traffic jams, just inconsideration and disrespect for the person we love the most. People are selfish on so many levels. It is heartbreaking just to read about it, the experience is so much more painful. You have expressed it exceptionally Kitty! I hope not because you are experiencing it now!!!
