HER HAIR BY NIGHT IS FIRERY RED,
BY DAYLIGHT SHE'S PURE-INNOCENT-MISLEAD.
HER THOUGHTS SEEM TO WONDER,
WEAVING IN AND OUT
LIKE MAJESTIC BUTTERFLIES SPUTTERING ABOUT.

HER COURAGE UNDYING,
YET SHE'S NOT SOLELY WHOLE-
SHE LONGS FOR HER SOULMATE,
WHOSE APPEARNCE IS UNTOLD.

SHE KNOWS DEEP INSIDE, THEY'LL BE TOGETHER AGAIN-
TO LOVE AND HOLD AS SISTERS, THE WAY THEY DID BACK THEN.

THE WAY THEY USED TO LAUGH-
CAN IT BE THAT WAY ONCE MORE?
SHE'S SUFFERING FROM A LONLINESS,
BUR DOESN'T KNOW WHAT FOR.

SHE'S NOT ALONE IN THIS WORLD-
TRULY NOT BY FAR,
YET WITHOUT HER OTHER HALF-
THESE MONTHS JUST SEEM SO HARD.

NO MATTER HOW DESERTED OR UPSET SHE FEELS INSIDE,
LONLINESS TAKES TWO-
SHE'S NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO CRIES.

THIS POEM IS FOR A SPECIAL WOMAN, WHO MY VERY WELL HAVE BEEN THE LOVE OF MY LIFE. WE LOST TOUCH YEARS AGO, AND I HAVEN'T FOUND HER SCINCE.

Beautiful, if it's meant to be, you will find here again. My fingers are crossed for you.

I'VE LEARNED THAT CRYING ONLY TEMPTS FATE IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION, SO IF IT'S MEANT TO BE, THEN I'LL SECRETLY WILL IT INSIDE. THANK YOU BOTH FOR YOUR COMMENTS!
