My Turn

Oh how the table had turned,

Flipped, switched, now I yearn,

reaching out as you walk away,

pain in my heart because you felt this way,

but I’m okay with it, my turn to feel the same

I’ll pay just to stare into your eyes once again,

remembering the times where we’ve been,

the longing between our single gaze,

tension so thick, knife gets stuck halfway,

now all I hear is the sound of you walking away,

now I’m reaching my arm out, pleading you to stay,

turn around, come back my way, choose me baby,

walk arm in arm with me,

rest your head on my shoulder safely,

I have all the time in the world and I want to spend it with you, but I can’t get the time of day,

but it makes sense since before I couldn’t do the same,

limited time together, and I’m the one to blame,

I’m a hypocrite now since what you wanted is what I want to claim,

Oh how the table had turned,

Flipped, switched, now I yearn,

reaching out as you walk away,

pain in my heart because you felt this way,

but I’m okay with it, my turn to feel the same

You wishing I could stay and talk all night,

wanting a convo between princess and knight,

phone calls, hearing your voice in my ear,

bless my brain with your vocals I hear, but now I’m checking my phone every second like an addict,

hoping to see your name on my screen,

simple action embedded in me, systematic,

phone empty you’re not at the scene,

still looking in case fate somehow changes,

the love words I wish we can exchange once more,

call my name I’ll be at your front door,

faster than you can blink, lips on my neck mark it down in ink, but

I hate how the table had turned,

It Flipped, switched, and now my heart yearns,

reaching out to your heart as you walk away,

pressure in my chest because you felt this way,

And I’m sorry baby for the wait,

but I’m okay with the same feeling, my turn to feel the pain
