Wished It Were For Me

it may be vanity’s touch
but they are words I wish for me
the wanting that would touch my sweat
rolling upon the heat of aching skin
in water that could quench and surround
whispered words that others hear
that somehow misplaced miss my ears
where only my own heartbeat echoes
why does this life choose me
the swirling silence of a stone
where I hear the words that could
call me so comfortably home
but are again meant
for another

just some words cut out
from the diary of my heart

That longing comes through strong. I have moved beyond the stage where once I may have been jealous of a well-established marriage, or young couple all googly eyed, or envy's tug I once felt when seeing a beautiful pregnant woman (and how I wish I'd done that......well, alright, I still own that one) or even that diamond commercial with the old couple holding hands.

Now I'm genuinely delighted for them all (and some consider me an old crank)

That puzzles me as well, it truly does ~~ but there are times and there are people, with whom it seems to be an ongoing pattern.

Listening to every heart

I have to align myself with RSW's thoughts...we get to an age, or a stage...where we just wish those we see, happiness...and hope their private lives are only rocky in the right ways...

I once broke my own heart with envy as I watched couples at an outdoor show--how loving they all were with each other and I was bitter, thinking "life will never be like that for me".

I was properly shamed by a little friend too.

But you lady, will have epic poetry written for you, as befitting the Goddess that you are.

(and if you'd like to read about my fit of envy, check your yahoo for the url, I'll leave a message.

)
