“IF ONLY ONE”
by
Bill Charles
~~~~
There’s no one home deep inside me,
today will be another gone by,
empty of thoughts in my mind,
if only one now I could hear sigh…

There’s no one home in my heart,
tonight will be another gone by,
empty like a lost soul that’s stranded,
if only one now I could hear sigh…

I would give the moon to one fair,
if not alone this time would go by,
the stars above would be yours,
if only one now I could hear sigh…

Oh, Bill!

I have missed reading your beautiful words and I'm so glad to be able to read them again........and sigh!

Take care.......Sue

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

You always seem to know just how to reach out and tug at the heart strings, Bill..

Lonesome and wistful and yearning, yes.. but so very full of feeling.. and you can feel.. this is a blessing, my friend, you can feel and even more a blessing, share those feelings

You write of sadness, loneliness and deep emotional hurt as only you can do.  This is exceptional.
