The Door

I'll lead you to this place
the place of wanting more
the line before the final step
the keyhole in the door.
But I won't go through
enter as you may
I'll turn and look around
for those who chose to stay.
Others are of less consequence
than stepping through the door
This one is flawed
She offers something more.
Alone on the doorstep
I leave you confused
The bell is broken
Knocking is of no use,
I'll turn and find another
to lead to this door
where only one holds the key
the next one too adore.

I Believed You

Did you know
I said no to friends
in hopes of being with you
for any time at all?
Did you know
I waited up
as long as I possibly could
because you said you would call?
Did you know
what you've done
to me because your promises
have ended up meaning nothing at all?

I know what I used to feel
and how you used to care,
but now I'm finding that life
without you is more than I can bear
You're gone for no reason
and won't even pick up the phone
I hope he fills your aching void
since you've left me alone.
