Worth My Time Poem by Marcquiese Burrell

It's not always easy to find a person with whom
you share an interest to even consider
making it official, it's more of a challenge,
knowing that you may never find it
all your life you've been waiting,
wanting to be entangled in a feeling only love can bring
How I quickly allowed myself to become infatuated withyou?
and without the intention, I created this illusion
that led me to disappointment and was emotionally left injured
Did I deserve it? I certainly didn't.
Guess the connection wasn't that special
there was something in you I liked
something that, caught my attention
Found you interesting enough to hold onto you
For some strange reason I'd become drawn romatically to you
and wanted for things to head to the next level.Yet, we've never got there
Are you even someone worth my time? or am I just in denial
of just how special the connection is between us?
Why like someone who doesn't put in the effort you would like them to?
Time and time again I have made excuses for you
Because, I liked you enough and convinced myself that you're worth my time
Just making excuses for your lazy and inconsiderate behavior
Still I know, deep down inside, whether you're truly crazy about me too or not
What i'm looking for is someone to call me or even get in touch with me when they can
Pay attention to what I like (type of movies, flowers, food, music, so on)
Expressing there feelings for me and lets me know how much they like me
Doesn't mind doing most of the chasing, Now that I came to acknowledge this
you really weren't worth my time, you're simply nothing but a lame
I would have liked you being mine, but, you seem somewhat insane
You're really not worth the wait, I was just further in denial
