OK
Tabitha J. Bryson 1973 (Indianapolis, Indiana)
When my tears fell like rain
there was no one here
I searched about me for an expression of love
but no one seemed to care
anguish came over me
the pain became severe
but still it stayed
and still I cried
until I finally ran out of tears.
You've forgotten me
turned your back & walked away
my heart still growing fonder for you
every single day
your love was all I've ever wanted
how many times will I have to say
that all I want more than anything
is for you to love me today.
But will that never be
never any love will you have for me
but still I ask
still I pray
I await the dawning of that day
though I fester & I cry
will I never be told why
You turned your back
you walked away
and all I can manage is to say
well if this is how how you want it
well then....
OK.
