Longing

Who knows the shame of wanting pain?
Of dreaming things you can’t explain.
Of wanting what’s not yours to take.
Can’t control the longing.

Who knows the path that’s right to choose.
For fear that love you might just lose
Don’t take a walk in someone's shoes.
And don’t control the longing.

Who says that life should go one way?
It‘s different in the world today.
Break free. Speak what you want to say.
Don’t try to fight the longing.

Life holds you back, but what is worse?
A lie is different than a curse.
Let your heart speak. That is first.
And welcome in the longing.

Wow.

I almost cried...ok I'll admit ONE small rogue tear escaped my eyes lol, grrr!

Your words are so strong and so powerful in such a small poem, capturing the essence of the message. The message to not fight what is inevitable, and to let yourself be taken by that of which you cannot control.

Seriously? Who do you think you are coming in here and being so incredibly talented with words and emotions and being so frickin' good!

Btw, verse 3 was probably my favorite, as I sort of try to live my life by those words.

I have to words for you, AMAZING!
