Not Leaving But Waiting (After Stevie Smith's "Not Waving But Drowning")

I was wrong, I know.
It was all my mistake.
But I was there, I am still there.
And not leaving but waiting.


Waiting for an excuse.
Waiting for a hug, a kiss, a smile.
"Don't you worry, everything is ok."
That was all I was waiting to hear.


I could not let you go away,
Because I love you so much.
That is why I am here.
And not leaving but waiting.
