Leave The Stars To Me

By Tony Pacheco

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Leave the stars to me, you cant reach them from here. Its already tomorrow and your still on the other side of the phone. I have nothing left to say but I cant let you go...not yet. Blue speckeld with gray is all I can see. Leave the stars to me. I've waited for this far to long, for you to come back hoping you would. Did I waste my time waiting? You just threw me away when you found someone else, not necassarily better, but different. I gave everything I had and of course its not enough. Im not enough, never enough, second best left behind and easily forgotten. No regrets but definite disappointment. "it's not you, it's me" Leave the stars they're out of reach.
