Ya Know Whut I Mean?

Here it is, another Sunday -
A day I used to hate -
But they have been getting better -
(To look forward to, of late).

It's the time when, if I'm lucky
We two, can sit and talk awhile -
When, she'll make me laugh out loud
And inside, she'll make me smile.

She may speak about the serious
Of how, she really feels -
About the things, she'd like to do -
The dreams wasting, while time steals.

I could listen to her all day long
And into the nighttime, too
Because, her sweet voice and humor
Can chase away, all of the blue.

She said, "I just tell you everything
And I'm talking off, your ears."
But she knows, I can see
Past the laughter, to her tears.

I hope she realizes, too
What, her trust in me, can mean -
Filling in, Sunday to Sunday
All that emptiness, between.

She gives me one day in the week
So much different, than the rest -
Of those seven, she can make it
The one, that is, the best.

I try hard, to be contented
With the time she shares, with me
But, I long for so much more
Of what, will never be.

Abe,  I had a friend like that once. It was hard because I wanted it to be more and she was content to just be friends.  Women don't understand how hard it is for a man to be just a friend, when we love them.

Good luck,  Nice write.
Tracey.

The answer is always NO, Until the question is asked.
