I’ve been waiting for you smoking cigarettes.
There are several crushed butts by my shoes.

You’ve not arrived yet and I’m beginning to think
you’ve stood me up. I have a little something for you
in my pocket and it’s yours when you get here.

The afternoon is getting late and store lights
are beginning to turn on. My little gift is
all nicely wrapped and I paid a lot of money for it.

We can go to a near coffee shop and sit there talking.
We can drink our coffee and I can tell you things that
are on my mind. They’ve been there a long time.

You’ve not come yet and I’ve run out of cigarettes.
I guess I’ll just turn up the collar of my coat against
the cold and wait a little longer. You will come.

Wow. I'm having trouble finding words right now. I felt so lonely reading this. (and hoping you picked up those butts and trashed them *wink*) The waiting you made almost palpable with your words. Well written.
Thank you for sharing.
Peace and hugs,
Laura

This was well expressed. I felt the lonliness and despair and the waiting that you put into this poem. It was a good poem. I hope that she will come. Don't lose hope but don't wait forever. Great poem.

Take care
