Missing Him

She lies in bed,
And cries at night,
And dreams of him til morning light,
She misses him,
It's plain to see,
To her heart he holds the key,
He left her for someone new,
Tears streak her face like the morning dew,
If only she were prettier,
Brighter,
Younger,
Then maybe he wouldn't have left her for another,
She longs for him to come back again,
And wants nothing more than to see his grin,
But to her he won't return,
She and their kids are no longer of his concern,
But still she waits for him to come,
Little does she know he won't succumb
