My anticipations fade out
into the chill of the night,
the full moon’s glow;
my crushed hopes spotlight.

The darkened street
wet from the rain,
the fog like a blanket;
covering my pain.

A yearning deep inside of me
like a raging fire,
unable to fully quench;
my insatiable desire.

I want him in my arms
but this he does not see,
I want to see his red car;
I want him to want me.

I do not see the red when I get home
but I see I’m out of luck,
it is the past that is waiting for me;
in a pickup truck.

Beth; As usual your poetry is beautifully written and flows like the dream you speak of hear. Your dreams will come true, but in God's way and time. Love, Mom

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.

This was nice..unfulfilled love can be very painful..I feel that in this piece.

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

Beth,
  Great expectations can become great dissapointments when not fulfilled! Better have a plan "B" waiting in the wings. Good writing!
