You Belong To Me (Poem)

Time is ticking ticking ticking

Moving so slowly by

My thoughts are whirling and flickering

They make me almost want to cry

Hours have passed since you left my sight

As I continue to glance at the door

Feeling the weight from our recent fight

I’m shaking right to my core

I don’t really know what started the fight

But it got out of hand so fast

All I did was bring my concerns to light

This fight was bigger than any in the past

Yes I can get pretty upset

I sometimes get a little down

If you don’t answer when I call

Or stop by when you’re around

I shouldn’t be so jealous

When you go out with your friends

Or get suspicious of the girls see

Whom you so eagerly defend

But no! I think with a possessive smile

I know that I am right

It’s me you should be with till the end

I will forgive you for this fight

So when you come back to me

We’ll sit and talk it out

And you will see that I am right

That it’s me you can’t live without

Sitting here though, staring at the clock

My smile starts to slip

For if you don’t agree and you try to leave

It’s your wings I’ll have to clip
