I like it better when you're crying

By RavenCross

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

When your girlfriend left you back in '99, It was in my living room where you first cried. I'm always around and we talk sometimes. When you need me the most is when everyone else turns you away. I'm like a last resort and there's always vacancy here. I know it's bad and feels so thoughtless, but I like it better when you're cying. You won't give me the time of day, 'till you start crying. I'm not on notice when you're smiling and happy. But my shoulder is always open to cry on. I know I should want better treatment, but having you around just makes my life worthwhile. I'm happy to help you cheer up when you're down, I wish you'd come around someday when everything's fine. Written November 22nd, 2001 © on Nov 21 2001 04:32 PM PST   10 • 0 • 8
