The writer courageously puts their work out into the world
and bares their soul
in hopes of finding that special someone to connect with.
One who sees how they see,
think like they think,
speak like they speak
and dreams like they dream.
The day was all fraught
with stress and strife
My nerves were all bent
from the chaos of life
Thought I could handle it
but alas it was a mess
My mind stripped clean
optimism started to regress
Getting through the day
would be most difficult to do
The wanton need for some air
near a place with a view
So I stepped outside quickly
became akin to nature’s palette
Weight of the world lifted
introspection reset
The bright sunshine rays
the soft, silent wind
Thoughts of your warm morning embrace
stirred feelings from within
Your unabashed, beaming smile
your gentle, loving eyes
A tingling sensation
came to my surprise
The hours till we meet again
though they seem so far away
Thinking of you…my love
made this a special day.
When I sit home all alone at night
and dream of what might be,
of finding that special someone to love
someone who’ll care for me
I look into the eyes of strangers that I meet
hoping to find my true love,
but what I really long to see
is an angel sent from heaven above
To find an angel here on earth
is a most difficult task to do,
but if the heart is pure as gold
a path’ll be shown straight and true
To follow this path is long and hard
more often vague than clear,
but if a feeling grows within one’s self
it proves that love is near
When one encounters this special feeling
they never take it at a glance,
for love is a difficult game to succeed at
it’s often left up to chance.
