He sits drinking coffee
In his usual chair
Just within arms reach
But he’s not really there
He gives me a nod
And a blank looking stare
Pretends to be listening
But he’s not really there
Went to the movies
Got popcorn to share
I snuggled up close
But he’s not really there
Lit scented candles
Romance fills the air
I wanted to please him
But he’s not really there
We had a big fight
Told him, it’s not fair
All I wanted was love
But he don’t even care
it hurts when all u want is 2 be noticed and loved but get neither. i think this is one of my favs.

I would like to translate this poem
If only someone was only there, I only see the reflection, of the love that was once there. Thank You so much, for sharing such meaningful words.
