I am waiting and anticipating what the future holds I far too often wonder, how you could be so cold I hear you saying, you don't love me anymore I see that things will never be the way they were before I want to make a stand, I want so much to be bold I am waiting and anticipating what the future holds I pretend it doesn't hurt when you tell me your lies I feel my heart breaking when I hear you say good-bye I touch upon the memories of our fleeting past and I worry I won't find another love that this will be my last I cry at the thought of finding love untold I am waiting and anticipating what the future holds I now understand sometimes two must go their seperate ways So , I say " What the hell, tomorrow will be a brighter day" I dream of one day finding someone made for only me I try to keep telling myself that this was meant to be I hope to find someone who will return my love 100 fold I am waiting and anticipating what the future holds This was inspired by a friends story. I hope it brings some hope into your life. I lie awake in a world filled with dreams, but dreams can be so real when you don't know you're asleep |

Jeffrey, what a kind and wonderful thing to write for a friend -- think I know who she is - and hope she will be my friend too. Lovely poem -- reads well. Hope of tomorrow always brings new adventure. Hugs, netswan |

Jeffrey, This was very touching and sweet, my friend. Brought a tear to my eye with the way you have reached out to help a friend in need. Excellent and wonderful writing, Jeffrey. I know it gives me hope for the future and what could be. Thank you for sharing!!

Jeffrey, I, too, am waiting for someone to return my love. I know the pain of loss, and it is never easy to deal with. But I made it, with the help of some very dear friends. I know how it feels to have to go your seperate ways. But I learned not too long ago that I am not truly alone, and, my friend, neither are you. Trust Instinct. Instinct will keep an animal alive, but Logic can kill a man. Richard "Rickey" N. Boydstun, Jr. |

Jeffery this was a very emotional poem. I can see you had feelings that went way beyond this. Love is such a fragile thing. Beautiful! |
