How Long Is How Long? Poem by Gold Trybes

How Long Is How Long?



Just here thinking why..
What about why, u ask 
How long does a man continue in pain
How long do u accept the same things 
Over and over?
How long and for how long 
Do u remain faithful 
Honest 
Truthful 
How long do u wait things out
How long does one wait a change 
Been down this road
And I know the feeling
It hurts
It cuts
It rips me apart 
To always find out, again and again 
That am left out in the cold 
How long is how long 
When the songs u know go awry
How long is how long
When that eerie feeling numbs you
How long is how long
When the love u feel is no more 
How much longer can I stand being hurt 
How much longer do i wait to be happy 
Lord knows am tired
Not again. I am drained
You lit up my sky with your smile 
Lit up my life with your glow 
Replaced that sadness with joy
How much longer do I wait
To turn this around 
How did waiting on you become waiting on forever
My heart is in a rift. Torn apart 
How much longer is how much longer?
