I Wanted to be

Love: Sometimes you don’t know what you have until it’s gone, and other times you never get to have it at all.

I wanted to be your shelter,
in sun and in shade,
the ear that listened,
the touch that soothed,
the voice you needed,
the Love you made.

I wanted to be your smile,
the laughter in your day,
the steam in your night,
the memories you stored,
the tickling flutters
that never went away.

I wanted to be the one
to gently kiss you,
and whisper promises,
truer than any lyrics,
better than any song,
to forever be the friend
you couldn’t lie to.

I wanted to be.

Other times you never get to have it at all! Deep!!!

If your passionate expression gets any Deeper I’ll be
Proud to tell a Lie. I’m thinking of a few Beautiful lies right now
It maybe illegal the way you stroke your pen in thoughts.

I’m ready to give a Toast to that Fool who didn’t let you
Be the One! In the mean time I think I must go Pacify myself
and pen me some fictional wanna be’s…

Amazing Poem!!!

As Ruby says, sometimes a relationship is not meant to be. Powerful words and well put together.
