Sit
Look around
Who’s with you?
Family?
Friends?
Strangers?
No one….
Search.
Who do you look for?
Who captivates your mind’s every thought?
Who possesses your soul?
Who owns your love?
Who do you want to find?
Who do you want to wrap their arms around you?
To never leave your broken side…
To take you, damaged, alone, worthless as you may be?
Who do you want to hold you?
To encase you in the safety of their adoration?
To talk to you and just care for you?
Who do you want to be with?
To laugh with….
To love forever….
To love you forever….
Clang!
Who just walked in?
Whose euphoric smiles warm your tortured soul?
Whose rhythmic footsteps keep pace with your broken heart?
Whose outstretched hand is within your yearning grasp?
Who just sat down with her?
He did.
He will never love me.
He is perfect.
He is my everything.
He doesn’t know.
He doesn’t care.
He never will.
