no one ever loved me
quite the way you claim to do
no one ever loved me
left me gasping in these shades of blue.

yes, it IS intensity--
and yes the need matches despair..
no one ever loved me much--
no one ever stole my air.

No one ever came to me
in want of my exhales.
No one loved me quite enough--
no one, matched, the way I care...

I don't need much--
just meet of me--
and that's too much
reality...
I need to touch
the mirror'd me...
I need a Hercules--
hold me?
I need you
be a part of ME.
I need you--
need you set me free.

I love you--
(if you did exist...)
I wish I could
release this wish.
I wish I wish
that emptiness
were not the tide's
relentlessness...

caving castles
built on shore
in whispers of
the evermore...

Serenity~

'caving castles
built on shore
in whispers of
the evermore...'



In whispers sigh
across a sea
your thoughts come
crashing back at me
Waves upon the new of sand
carving castles
Oh so grand~

Well ... suffice to say ...
I felt the brush of inspire~

Lovely thoughts .... thank you~

Ah...serene....

wouldn't have anything
to do with slow dancing

Will you duet with me?

I have come back to read this more than three times....It is so deep and sincere. I know many of us understand your need. But in real life those who are able and would fulfill such a need are often tossed aside as being whimpy or think they might be...We can go on dreaming I guess.. I think I had such a love, but he was unable to express it openly, or could not find the ways or words... I often told myself the words I knew he would say if he but could..Does that make sense? best, martyjo

He is there. Know that, never doubt. Be open, be ready, and have no preconceptions whatsoever...love is almost always a shock, when it's real, the person we suddenly love so different from the love-image we've held, and yet despite all the superficial things they ~are~ that person.....

Well...I just got caught going right into a poem's message, as though it came to me without the words at all...a mark of excellence in writing!

Yes, I fully understand this longing.  I was once in love with a wonderful man, just like you describe here, but 3 months before we were to be married, he disappeared without a trace.  All he left behind in his apartments were the tokens of love I had given him.  I don't know if he is dead or alive, but I have never loved another like that since.  I got married and 1 1/2 years later, divorced.  I too long for this love again.  Very well done.

This is one that surprises me, continuously.

I felt helpless writing it.

I feel helpless re-reading it.

I'm just sorry so many can relate.

wow. and I'm sorry...

Musicmaker1969, Today I found out  the reason my hairdreser has not been to her salon is because her daughter's 28 year old fiance just took his life.  His wake was this afternoon. They had bought a home together and moved in and were to be married in 2008.  I have no particulars, but what a horrible thing to do to the girl,her family, his family and all involved. I feel for you. A huge hurt that had to be. Sincerely , "late"

Serenity, This poem of yours is so good and brings so much to others  that it has to be bumped every so often.  I am happy Kacy (midnightsun) had a chance to read it.
