Wonderful
By: Noah Eaton
10/15/01

I am going on 18 in two weeks
I watch as all my youth fades away
Everything I’ve always wanted so badly
Seems to fade
I wish I could have had a friend
That I could walk and talk to when I’m alone
All I was before is all shattered
Where will my future go?

I remember those days
When I thought everything can change
I could have those who would love and look up to me
You’d say that someday
Everything would be wonderful and gay
I would be loved and free…

Even now I sit on a cold empty swing
I thought I could touch the stars, but no one was there to push me
I stay alone at home, gazing on a computer screen
Wishing for all the friends I love, that I could see
To let me know I’m not all alone
I will be loved in my life
That I could hug you close
And have someone to cry and talk to within sight

I explore a college campus
And I feel so apprehensive
If things could change out here
If someone would welcome me
I could talk to someone and believe
That everything can become wonderful for me…

I just want to feel alive
I want to feel loved in my life
I can’t bear now to hear
That everything will be wonderful someday soon
I want to feel happy

I feel like I’m in black and white
Buried in the classifieds
Every time I walk this world
Without a hand to hold
Without gleeful memories to own
Without my dream girl

I enter another year
And I shed another tear
Wishing if things can change
If I will ever love someone
Praying I don’t come undone
If everything will be wonderful someday

I feel no one loves me anymore...
I feel no one loves me anymore...

Ah this is heart wrenching. I could say that you'll have plenty of time to find a special someone in your life (probably more than one), but that's not how you feel right now, and probably not what you want to hear. But, trust me, you will find that person one day

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

Very lovely, yet sad poem. I felt your every word and I have been at that place many moons ago. Keep searching, you will find that one for you.

(big hugggsssssss) Thank you for your comments! Maybe someday I will be loved by someone, maybe...It was nice knowing all of you, but it's time for me go; it seems like very few care about my work here.

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Noah,
Where are you?  Don't give up on us yet.  I've read your comments on the poems of others and they are so tender.  You have much to give my friend.  We have much to offer.  I've been as lonely as you.  I know that pain.  Don't give up.  Come back again.

Sin isn't fair, but God got even, grace isn't fair either.  larry c
