How Long
How Long
By Nancy Rodriquez
How long, my Love, until we meet again?
The waiting is hard for me to bear,
Until we can address the pain,
and train our hearts to care,
Six months have gone by, and I am exhausted,
from crying and worry too,
To win your heart again, would be awesome,
and to earn your trust in all I do,
I would want you to do the same,
and the past would stay in the past,
neither of us sharing any more blame,
I know then our love will last,
We could feel whole again,
and grow as couples are supposed to,
I have had enough of the pain,
I want to resume loving you.
