Fighting back tears

[blackbanner]

why do you wait?
so long ago
far from reality
weeping by the phone
forgotten promises
never kept
fighting back tears
you run away
time and time
again
heartbreak at every turn
cant get a break girl
cant find a way out
fighting back with hate
the love is buried
i dont want to lose you
i need you, crave you
finding hope within ourselves
at the brink of devastation
together we stand
apart, we drop
on the ground again
fighting back tears
running to me
i found you

nice poem, I could relate, except, the other way around.
