As My Heart Rots Poem by TR Jones

I think about you all the time
Wondering why you won't be mine
You're on my mind day and night
The thought of you just seems so right
Everywhere I go I see your face
Into my life you have been laced
But there is nothing I can do
Because I cannot be with you

In the past I have treated you so bad
So many times I've made you sad
I know I deserve worse than this
But you I will always miss

When I'm with you everything is perfect
For you, anything is worth it
But now I sit here alone
On and on the loneliness will drone
These broken lines of my thoughts
Are all that comfort me as my heart rots

God I wish you would come back to me
So from this loneliness I could be free
I would never again break your heart
Because never again would I want to be apart
I would hold your body so close to mine
For you I would always have the time
Pain would never again reach your heart
Because a new life I would start
You would be my little queen
Oh what a glorious dream

I pray that you will come back someday
But until then, here I will stay
With you always in my thoughts
As my heart rots...
