Wait A Little Longer

by Katherine - Aquarius

I'm all alone and sleeping
only because I'm alone.
A single bleeding heart
waiting for someone to care for me
and get this beaten heart warmed back up.
My dreams are getting violent,
so much so that reality is being twisted,
Bent beyond repair so that I may dream of love
all while I'm awake.
All alone and dreaming,
putting my desires to use,
to keep my smile from growing cold
and my touch from becoming harsh.
So I may wait a little longer
for someone to steal my heart.
So I am able to bury my longing of being held so close,
from being greatly needed and wanted so bad
that I'm afraid to lose that passion
if I ease up on my embrace.
I'm all alone and sleeping
with thick soft blankets that would melt the ice
that has gathered at the edges of my suffering heart,
driven by hope to beat strong.
