Waiting on the Stairs

At first I thought it was a lie

It was more than I could take

All the long lonely nights

The more my heart would break

Two thirty in the morning

You're nowhere in sight

I thought that you loved me

I know this can't be right

Every time you walk out the door

I'm begging you to stay

It's gotten out of hand love

It's the price I have to pay

I was crazy to think I could change you

I was crazy to think you cared

Guess I'll light up a cigarette

And wait for you on the stairs

They told me not to trust you

They said you're full of lies

How could I not see this

You wore a great disguise

So once again I'll sit here

Waiting for you to come home

I don't think I'll forgive you

For leaving me all alone

What a great poem, well written.
It truly shows the commitment and loyalty the character has after dealing with it everyday knowing it wont change.
