Not the One

by Kristina Harris - Aries

I do not know a single soul
that matches up with mine...
Day after tedious day,
I take slow, cautious steps
inside and out of the buildings
that make up my life.
Although I am not fully aware,
I am always searcing,
listening for the voice
that will intertwine with my heart,
making it beat again,
pumping fresh red blood
throughout my tired body,
rejuvenating me with 
the necter of love.
Though I search each day,
I have not yet found this voice,
except in my dreams...
which take me to a place
where rushing water runs pure.
Like thousands of loving hearts
it moves swifly and
rythmically.
I hear the voice...
it revives my spirit,
and inside my chest I feel
the beating of a heart...
that I thought was forever clutched
by the essence of loneliness,
her pointed fingernails wrap
around it and hold it still..
Perhaps I am not the one
who shall feel the way lovers do..
So I shall dream..
forever.
Lost in a world of mystery
and sweet waterfalls..
in a peaceful slumber that will last
beyond the beating of my heart.

Reason for writing:

    Don't worry. I am not really this depressed.
