I should be the one you turn to,
                     When your day goes wrong...
I should be with you to rock you gently,
                     All night long...
If your mind is full of care..
You would find me always there..
I could satisfy your every need....


I should be the one you're holding close,
                     Tonight in bed...
I should be with you, but She's the
                     lucky one instead...
I'm the one you won't forget..
You would like to try, but yet..
I will be the woman in your dreams....


I should be the one to know where ending
                     this should start...
I would be with you so we would never
                     have to part...
I'm the one whose holding on..
If it was Her, she'd soon be gone..
I could be what your 'Forever' means....


I should be the one who holds you deep
                     within her heart...
I should be with you, but we're so
                     very far apart...
When I read the words you say..
I feel them in a special way..
I should be the one....I would be the one...
Yes, I could be the one, if you'd just let me....

You've expressed yourself well in this Sunny ... the longing and desire flow powerfully through your words. Very nicely penned!

Best wishes,

Great poem.  You can feel the anxiety and hurt that is written.  Very tender.

Sunny,

This one is very touching, sad and romantic.  I think we've all been "the other one" at one time or another.  Great one.

Hey you---are you sure you wanna be?LOL All kidding aside this is one of the sweetest ones I have read today.  I don't know how it got past me earlier but I do catch up eventually.  Beautiful and romantic.

Awww sad Sunny but so well written. I've been there....though you always have a way of putting things into words so easily. Wonderful!

Hi Sauni...Yes, it is sad, but it seems to
           be a situation that most of us
           are in at one point or another.
           It's a cry from the heart......

             Thank you, Sauni......

Claire...Thank you ever so much, also, and
          I am glad you enjoyed this one!!

Hi Jenn E...

           Life and love is never fair, so
         the best you can do is live with
         it, and in order to do that..I
         write about it. You probably do the
         same...it seems to be a poet's
         way!!
             I thank you for your kind
             reply...it is appreciated!!
