As a child alone and in despair, I craved for my mothers love that was not there. A father's lust for his own need, Verily defiles my body as I weep and plead. Growing up my loneliness grew, Oh how I wished somebody knew. In a loveless marriage with two children of my own, I left and gave them the love I hadn't known. Giving them what I never had, To fill a part of that longing that made me sad. Now the emptiness is back as my children have grown, Taking with them the only love I had ever known. This body of mine needs food to keep on track, But my soul needs love to feed on and snack. My heart weeps too as it hears my souls cries, For a soul without love withers and dies. |

I don't know how to put the smiley in - I tried to put in the guy with a tear. May your days become fuller, deeper, full of wonder. May your heart be filled with love, with joy, with good things. May you know just how wonderful you are, to the innermost recesses of your soul. May you know peace. You, and whomever else can relate with this poem. |
