Longing Heart

Longing Heart
By: Jeffrey Lazaro

Far away in my mind and heart
I stand alone in the center.
Looking from every direction
Not knowing if someone else
May be with me in my journey.

I sigh and frown 
At the peace before me.
Wanting only another
To talk to about anything,
But again my companion is silence.

Time passes and elapse
And still no sign of a friend.
I now sit and stare
At the barren wasteland 
That is part of my heart
Over and over again.

Feelings of melancholy
Seep in to keep me imprisoned.
Not wanting to take a chance 
On my so called escape,
To the great, joyful land
In my oppressed mind.

If only I had another
To help me through the path.
Someone to love me 
Truthfully and knowingly
Like the way I would.
Only then will my desert
Be fertile with life
All likely through true love.

Reason for writing:

    I wrote this poem because of the way people interpret life before love.
