Be Inspired: Supporting Actress

Have you heard where I’ve been?

Did I read your last review?

I watch your success as if it were my own

Knowing you makes me not feel so alone.

You guide me but you don’t know this

Just to be near you, I find new business

I go to the coasts for you

But I learn you have found someone new

I recall the time that we have spent

I was never ready for it to end

It isn’t abrupt or whole-hearted

Maybe we just never started

Intentions meant well but

The well is deep and now a rut

You wondered if you should let me in

I just hoped for something to begin

Each day since our meeting

I look forward to any long distance greeting

Vacation plans didn’t last

Hopes faded and then they passed

I wish I could be underneath your skin

But I have learned that I may never win

Your true affection and desire

Passion or not, you’re the coal in my fire

Some dreams reach an idle state

No sense in rekindling old flames

But the inspiration is always there

In the dark, our friends are the flare

You lit my night once before

As I left the dark sea reaching for shore

My new dawn was held in your eyes

Your healing hug changed my life

I have been in love with you for far too long

I realize that this may have been unfair or even wrong

Now is the time when all smart girls say goodbye
