Rocking Chair

You know I hate waiting, don't you?

Then why don't you just come?

You know that life is ticking, and we don't have time to waste.

Then why don't you just come?

You know I'd smile at you, and stare at you and smile at you.

Then why don't you just come?

You know that I'd go around the world with you, and I'd let you go around the world with me.

Then why don't you just come?

You know I'd sew you clothes, make you a Halloween costume, and trick or treat with you.

Then why don't you just come?

You know I'd let you eat all the chocolate chip cookies.

Then why don't you just come?

You know I'd read for you, sing you your favorite songs and write you poems.

Then why don't you just come?

You know I'd paint for you, paint around you, paint you.

Then why don't you just come?

You know I'd let you be my home.

Then why don't you just come?

You know I'd love you forever, love you unconditionally, love you beyond.

Then why don't you just come?

You know I'd be there, and here, and everywhere else.

Then why don't you just come?

You know I keep looking at my watch, at the big pendulum in my living room, at clock towers.

Then why don't you just come?

You know I'm waiting.

Then why don't you just come?

You know I hate waiting, don't you?

Then why don't you just come?




why don't you just come?

maybe he/she doesn't know that you will love him/her forever. He/she is too caught up in the cookies for a long time so they can't see the progression in the relationship. but if the relationship is advance then i think you have to keep on waiting :(

I'm sure that at some point I want "it"...if it exists aslan..but that's another story =)

i_inside: that so amazing! It never crossed my mind that anyone could read it as a mother-daughter convo..but now that u mention it, I go back to read it and everything just falls in place perfectly.
