The bile

God how I scream for you in the night
When i wake with leg cramps and backache
To hold me and tell me it will be alright
Like you once did when your heart ached

The tears burn and the bile rises, when
My mind turns to you and to him
Your electronic lover
with kids and wife under cover
You used me cause that was your whim

No more limerick

No more iambic pentameter

You want the bile, you want the shit
Then listen while I bring you it
Pay attention to this for you won't ever see
words like this coming out of me

I loved you and held you i needed you so
But you wouldn't let me get well
You told me your love would never be ending
Why won't you answer the mail I've been sending?

The flowers, the presents all unacknowleged
The cards and the begging and the groveling
Why won't you have lunch, or tell me to shove
all the shit that I've been busy shoveling

This is so shameless, this crying
and whining and hurting and dying
God damn it, talk to me soon
i can't wait for another full moon

To make up another in the long list of chat names
To make sure your safe and warm and alive
Lurking and sending a quick little word
because when you don't know me I know I'll be heard

Tell me you do or tell me you don't
i asked you before and begged but you won't
Don't tell me to listen to what my heart said
Because if I listen I'm better off dead

My heart says to hold on to something not there
My brain tells me that you truly don't care
My friends say, come on Jim you need a real life
But all i can think of is you as my wife

My God I can't believe all this shit that i'm saying
I better not post this or folks will be saying
Look, there's another eminem without cussing
All i can think of is hair you'd be mussing

The tears flow, and there's an empty place in my heart.  i can choose to fill the hole with tears and I will die, or I can choose to fill it with dreams and live.

i guess I will choose tomorrow, or sometime
