Why Did I Wait?

Why Did I Wait?

A Poem by Apebble

When did things fall,
When did I let them crumble?
When did I wait for things to fail,
When did I stand and let things be?
When did I watch as everything tore apart?
When did I stay away when I smelled it burning?
When did I turn my back when I knew the gun was loaded?
When did I let the world crowd in, into a place they did not belong?
When did I take in the lies that you kept passing off as the final truth?


Why did I wait, why did I wait, why did I wait to say
Why did I wait, why did I wait, why did I wait to say, to say
It was you, all along, the whole reason I'm writing this song
It was you, to this day, the only reason I'm writing this song
All this time I watched as you faded away,
All this time I watched til your very last day
Why did I wait, why did I wait, why did I wait
Why did I wait, why did I wait, why did I wait
To say...I loved you
