A poem about longing for this one special person to come into your life and getting some nasty things instead.
Why do I keep longing for something that is not mine
And don’t feel fine
I long for my true love to hold me
Knowing that never can be
I want to run my finger through his hair
Feeling a real love affair
But for me only dreams remain
Love for me remains a pain
A man once claimed me
I was to blind to see
I ended up as a puppet to his terror
Longing to make no error
I wanted love and got stuff
And the curse that was enough
I longed for a little freedom to be myself
But got dominated by the other half
I wanted to live but could not find my way
Not knowing the love I had was being led astray
I lived in fear each day
For him not to come home I did pray
The other man I loved was miles apart
And just playing his part
He never wanted to be my lover I know
My true feelings I could not show
Love died in me on one end
And on the other side it would strand
I run for my life while I wanted to die
Asking myself why
My love for the other man kept me on my feet
And made loss repeat
I never touched him and I know I never will
But I long for it still
Dreams of romance should be a great affair
For me they are a nightmare
I hate to love because of this
Reality is loneliness
I gave up believing that the man I long for would ever see me as a woman
Instead of as a fan
I want to commit to somebody true
But always remain blue
I never gave myself away
Faithful I did stay
Also to a man that held my heart in terror
I still bleed for that error
Loving a man that will never be yours is a painful whishlist
From my experience more hurting than a fist
The physical pain I could endure
For my heartache I can not find a cure
I left all I had for a dream I longed to become true
But face that there will be no me and you
