Why do men promise to call and know they never will?
Why do these women sit by the phone depressed and
making themselves ill!
Why do men spend time with you and make promises
they don't intend to keep...just to get you in the bed
and do anything but sleep!
Why don't they call?
Alicia Key's wants to know...and she is in the big show!
Said he was going to call and the phone never rang.
I feel that hollow pit in my stomach like a real hard
hunger pain.
Said he was going to call, whe he left you at the door.
You didn't ask for his lie, and you need no alibi.
Why do men promise the moon and then deliver
Moon Pies instead, with a single rose from the
street vendor that has seen better days.
Said you were going to call to make plans for our
next date...I sit and wait and wait!
I figure you are just busy and "Actually working late!"
Why do men promise to call and never do.
How would you feel if someone did this to you.
Said he was going to call and then he never did
I know now my true feelings I should have hid.
Should I have let him hit it, even though it was
early in the game.
Why I haven't met his family or been to his place
and I don't even know his middle name!
Said he was going to call...but he must have lost
my number...or maybe I was just a showpiece
on his arm just for the summer.
So now I figure he is taken and playing the players
game...."How to tame a black woman!" I think
you got it wrong.
Said you were going to call, why did I believe that
****...I knew this was not going to fit, and it wasn't it!
So you didn't call today and tommorrow has not come.
I don't know what I will say to you except that I am
done...
No more waiting by the phone.
Spending evenings all alone.
Waiting for a ray of hope to come bursting through
these dark clouds...I am praying for God to stengthen
me and I am praying very loud.
Tears roll time my face trying to erase, the "What if's"
and the "What's wrong with me!" and "Why can't I
get some love!"
Said he was going to call, but you didn't call at all!
Not yesterday and not today...Sorry bro but this
sista doesn't do it that way!
It's a deal breaker, a lie without cause...
Feeling relieved it went no further...I stop and
then I pause!
Said he was going to call...but he never did!

Thanks Rich!

Thank you for always encouraging me and supporting me not only in my writing but as a friend. I cherish the day I found Destee and I shout for joy because of you and the wonderful people who make Destee the best Site on the WWW....with out a doubt , some of my poetry would still be collecting dust!
Appreciate you taking the time...hope that others will, but it doesn't bother me like it used to. I get fulfilled knowing that I am sharpening my craft and getting myself ready for the "Big Show" getting published! Pray for me this year, much going on in my world...I will tell you about it in private...:kiss: :kiss: :kiss: :D
 
see what happened is this
uh you know I lost
I mean naw, uh someone stole my cell phone
and see uh I had your number programmed in it
uh your number was 02, you know the first one
uh cause you know 01 be for emergencies, but you was 02
and uh see uh ok i admit I'm bad with memorizing numbers
but uh see this why I had you number programmed 02
that way I would always be connected to you
cause you know that's important to me
so I made you 02, but see uh
they stole my phone
and since you number was in the phone
i couldn't call you cause you were in the phone
uh and see
what uh I started to naw you know what I was gonna do
I was just gonna come ova
but then I thought I can't come ova
without calling first so uh
i was trying to look you up in 411
but uh, you know they say yo number not listed
you should change that cause somebody might need to call you
like me
see uh
and so when I couldn't call you
I didn't know what to do
so I started praying
yeah I prayed that since I couldn't call you
cause they stole my phone
and yo number was 02 then
I was praying that you would call me
so I could explain why I didn't call you,
but you see I got a new phone now
and uh, but uh you know it looks like my other one
but that's because you know I like that brand and it's easy to use
so if you give me yo number
I can uh put you back in 02.:D
 
That is too cute...how could I say no!

Not because yo alibi is solid or because I believe one word you said, but you must have put a lot of thought into coming up with the perfect explanation to keep me from kicking yo butt to the curb...So I'ma give you my number one mo time and if you loose this one then that is yo behind!:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :kiss:

Missed ya!
Blessings on Ya House!
