Love Poem: Alone

Alone

Once again I sit here all alone  
 Painfully wondering where you are.
Not knowing if you're dead or alive.
You promised me you'd be right back
But once again you're heading
 Down the wrong track.
I sit here once again wondering 
Who you're spending our time with.
Contemplating if somehow
 I could be the one to blame
Because again and again you seem
 To be choosing the flame.
Why haven't you picked up
 The phone and called?
It's because you're chasing
 Your Monster and his Eight Ball.
I sit here pondering maybe
 I'm doing something wrong
But it seems to be that
 You’re being strung along.
Why would you make us go through this?
Has your Monster finally killed our wedded bliss?
I've searched for the answers but I have failed
And as for you it seems you have bailed.
So all I know is what I've learned
Painfully sitting here All Alone.
