With every fiber
of Your being
You wanted to know
what it
Was like to
laugh and flirt
With life
With reckless abandon.
You yawned to
experience what
It was like to
stand close up
Up to a man or woman with
a white smile
Incredibly
cocooned by the
Warmth and
security of his/her
Wonderful auric
energy
His/her care and
protection embracing
You like the warmth from sunlight
Looking down at
me tenderly and
Whispering those
magic words
I love you and mean it
Causing a flight
from reality.
You used to dream
about a great
Togetherness and
was sure
That you’ll
achieve it, yes
The world of
dreams you believe
Would be part of your everyday life
But life can be
a lonely road until
You have a
partner to take
The journey with
you because
Some partners you started with
Will abandon you along the path
And you wake up in an
empty bed with
An empty day
stretching before
You and nothing
to look forward
To but empty
weeks, months and years
You wanted to know
what it would
Be like to lean your head on
Your partner's
shoulder, and feel those
Large, capable
hands on you but
You feel excluded
from something vital
A foretaste of feeling of abandonment
Everything around you
Lives and
breathes of togetherness
And family but
You're still
yawning to feel someone's touch
That
affectionate regard and passion.
But as
loneliness steal over you
With veiled envy you watched
Young couples
strolling together
Stealing kisses
when they thought
No one was
watching.
Love is the
answer to pain and
Loneliness,
suffering. Because
As misery
thrives in solitude so
Does happiness
thrives in company
I’ve learned to
close my eyes
And conjure up
cherished images
To banish my
loneliness, so you can
This was the
solution to the
Problem that
stemmed from the
Complicated
inner geography of
My heart.
Put it to use
Meet other and not withdraw
within yourself
Like a turtle
pulling itself
Into its hard
shell.
