What For? Poem by Rick Elpers

As this day unfolds
I see I'm not over you yet.
Waiting on your arrival
that may never come
Yields anxiousness, annoyance 
regret and sadness.
That now I've been placed 
secondary in your plans
 after you've exhausted
all the social, work and family 
to finally have time for me.
It's pitiful that I still regard you 
so necessary and that I'd sit 
around waiting for your reply.
Although you had need
for my services the other night,  
of which I so willfully obliged 
to help your fears go away.
So as you need, I'm worthy,  
but as I need,  after its all done
you might find the time, unless
something more interesting happens...
