Linger

Linger

By H

Wishful thinking, blissful dreams

Not everything is what it seems

I’m empty, hollow, broken inside

I really fear that I must hide

From your grace, your presence

Because it takes a toll on my sanity

Pride and courage all spent

Nothing left but my vanity

I was as good as yours

While I still hoped and dreamt

Now I’m told its all for naught

But still I sit waiting, wishing

Lingering.

You know I’m such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
