To You. * Poem by Shelley L Baxter

As I lie here upon my bed,
I think of all the things you said...
and I wonder if their true,
I want to hear it from you.

I’ve been told that you’re in love,
that I’m the one you’re dreaming of...
Still your actions don’t prove true,
I need to hear it from you.

If you would just tell me how you feel,
take the time to show you’re real,
pick up the phone just to say,
I think about you most the day.

Then I would not be in the dark,
wondering if our loves a lark,
you would know I love you too,
there’s so much I long to say to you.
