My soul weeps – my heart bleeds,
For someone to Love me.
Things, most take for granted,
Make ‘me’ come alive.
That smile across the room,
A wink, caress, hug, kiss.
We all need these things,
The human “touch”
Without such, we wither inside.
I don’t speak of the “act” as some would call it,
Just tenderness, understanding, that simple showing,
That they Love you
How many of us would just want that “hug”?
To snuggle while we watch a movie?
Simple things say so much.
Why do so many live their lives without this?
Why do they stay for their kids sakes,
When that excuse isn’t best for anyone?
Why do we forsake our happiness for fears?
Fears of what neighbors might say, community whispers, etc.
Life is too short to not embrace it fully,
When things get old and hum-drum & the one we care
about can’t or isn’t willing to try and all other resources have gone dry,
Isn’t that an indicator that life shall be as it is and has been,
Unless we change it and think about ourselves.. for once.
I for one, don’t want to go to my grave not knowing Love,
The full essence of it.
I know that there is someone right for me out there,
It hasn’t come to me, as yet but, still, I look forward.. not back.
We must try – if we don’t, we might as well just keep withering and die,
I want to be alive and feel alive
I want those small gestures to tell me they care,
I want to share my life with someone who is the same.
With the right one – all is possible,
Love can come and be nourished and shared.
Don’t allow yourself to wither and give up,
Please, re-think and press onward.
We’ll all be better and happier people if we do,
And once again, there ‘is’ someone for me and for you!!!!
