Temper Tantrum
If I didn't love you, I wouldn't have taken the time to tell you,
All the while you were standing there acting so immature and selfish,
Holding my breath and counting to ten a million times over,
I quietly sat and watched the rage until you stopped breathing over my shoulder,
I couldn't take the abuse any longer, And I decided to leave the room,
Because I knew in my heart my intentions were good, and you would eventually see it soon,
What good am I to you if you can't hear me, or label me, and tune me out,
And in the midst of this temper tantrum you will find the culprit here is doubt,
It's like reliving childhood while your placing your fingers in your ears,
And humming a tune while your parents are trying to guide you about something you don't want to hear,
How can I protect your heart when you act so unwilling,
And treat me like a stranger in my own house while all the while I'm giving,
I never left the house, I only moved to the next room,
And until I know it's safe to come out, I promise I'll come back soon,
For the love I have for you will always be in my heart to stay,
What's looks to you now as if it's gone, never really went away.
