Two Years Too Long
When do you stop waiting?

I saw your smile
At work, we talked for the first time and my heart stopped
All I could see was your black shirt
Your cologne smelled of you and I wanted that smell forever
I leaned against the table to talk to you
I reached for my phone, wishing time had stopped
I tasted the mint from my gum and pretended to taste your touch
All I see is gray and nothingness
I was blessed to have my daughter, but my family was broken
All I could hear, was the first song we ever listened to together
I still see gray and nothingness
The love is still there, but the happiness and respect is gone
It was hard
Would my daughter ever understand
