Longing

Open Hearts

Voracious Hunger for the Other

Eternal Faithfulness

I gaze at him with an ache in my heart.

I long to throw myself into his powerful arms, to gaze into his deep eyes,

And see only love.

I crave the feeling of his lips on mine, his arms holding me tight.

My desire for him remains unquenched over the years.

Will there ever be a time where I can claim him as my own?

I dream of him beside me, caressing me tenderly,

But all these things I want,

Will I ever have them?

Is it too much to ask,

For a little love in my life?

Love... willI experience it?

Oh love of my life!

How it pains me to only gaze,

WhenI want so much more!

Iwant to soar higher than greatest eagles!

Iwant to reach peaks higher than Mt. Everest!

Iwant you to hold me,

To carress me,

To love me...

Love... willI experience it?

Is love only found in books,

To be read about, but not felt?

Is love a fantasy,

To be dreamed about, but never experienced?

HowI envy those,

Who have found true love

If only...

If only I could experience the wonders,

The majestic feelings, the beauty!

Just once.

Iwould be content.

Love... WillI ever experience it?

What is love?

Is it the passion you find in bed?

Is it the feelings you get when you gaze upon the other?

Is it simply being with a special someone?

Iwould like to know...

ForI may never experience it.

Love... what is it?
