I wrote this at one turbulent time in my life obviously before I found Mr. Right and married him!!!!!
HOW LONG CAN I WAIT
How long can I wait
for you to get your priorities straight
It doesn't make sense when you say you care but you can't get be there
this I ask how long can I wait
for you to have a change of faith
beautiful, sweet, and smart...I've been told I am a thousand times
but why do I keep trying to change your dumb-as$ mind.
you yourself see these qualities of me like everyone else
but toward being with me you still rebell.
Now I feel silly asking myself what do I see in you
your qood qualities compared to mine equal few
So again why in the hell am I waiting on you
could it be your looks, the parties, the wine money or the romantic sex.
Although this is not all that I seek you gave it generously to me
I know that all of this blinded me to see that you're really not the one for me
and once I let go and God sees
He'll provide the real Superman thats already waiting to pamper me!!!!
