Sorry We Missed You
Location
Two days ago I woke up with a sign on my door that read "Sorry We Missed You"
I was with my friends late last night so I didn't even think about answering the door
My daddy always told me "Baby girl live it up while you can"
So we went out dancing and tearing up the floor
We were invincible
Me and my closest friends
Making promises that we all were going to make it and stay together to the very end
Not everything was perfect but I was having some fun
Just waiting for the day that something better would come.
I dreamed of a better life and sometimes I could touch it.
Two days ago I was satified with my life and I hate myself because it.
Yesterday my dreams kept me up all night.
That never happened before
I didn't know what to do but sit up and think about my life and all the things I wish to explore
This city was holding me back from living my dreams
And the boy I wanted to marry was far from a King
I once thought we were madly in love in reality he was a clown
Playing jokes on me and seeing my bestfriend when I wasn't around
But he was the best in town so of course I had him on my arm as I walked around
So instead of staying home and doing something about my life
I dropped everything when he called and continued playing wife
Once I got back home there was a sign on the door that read "Sorry We Missed You"
Last night I cried myself to sleep and did not dream
I made a decision to stop dreaming and start living
When my friends called I told them I was trying to figure out my life
They said I was tripping and would be irrelevant by the time sun rise
They said just think about the people who would miss you
Since I didn't change my mind they simply said it wasn't they issue
A few minutes later he was on my phone line
Telling me to come out and have a great time
He knew how much I wanted to go out just the two of us
He thought it would be better if he brought the crew with us
But as soon as I told him sorry I had alot of on my mind
He flipped out and told me "Sorry? You do this all the time"
I knew even before he clicked off the line he was calling my bestfriend so they can have quality time
I woke up crying
I cried until I heard a knocking at the door
I just sat and listen until I didn't hear it anymore
I dried up my tears and decided I would take the chance
I was tired of being Sorry and thinking about the people who would miss me
I ran to the door praying in advance that it wasn't another sign saying " Sorry We Missed You"
Instead it was a man holding a package and a letter
A letter that would make my life one hundred times better
A letter that would give me hope and the motivation I need to fufill my dreams
This delivery man just changed everything
The man looked at me and smiled saying "We almost missed you"
But there was no chance I would let that happen again
