Searching for love

Been feeling super lonely lately... wish I had that special someone to spend this time with.

I sit here all alone wishing I wasn’t

I want someone to love me

I wouldn’t say I’m hard to love

Just take the time to understand me

 

I’m miles away from being perfect

Perfection is just a goal never met

My heart has a lot of love to give

The right woman hasn’t arrived yet

 

Someday she will reveal herself

I will reach out for my queen

The beauty that her mind and soul possess

Is unlike any beauty that I have ever seen

 

To hold and kiss her softly

Is more than a dream come true

It is a love dreamt over and over again

A love sent from above, pure and true

This is beautiful, I too feel alone. This was so real. I didn't feel alone anymore as I read it, I like how starting off went from what seemed like a sad mood to bringing hope in your situation. you did not just leave it as, (I'm alone, etc) it went to ( I know she is out there) .. some people lose hope, I have. But in reading this to be able to give someone hope through your words, is a very powerful gift.. love this Aaron

Anybody is perfect but everyone needs to be love. But In my opinion nowadays we forget about truly love... We are focused on "more important" things... Unfortunetly I think. Sant Paul beautiful have written about love in his lirycal letter "Anthem to love", maybe you know this text. I reccomend to read it. It really can inspire and make a reflection. Hugs! :)

(Sorry, If i made mistakes, I am from Poland and still learn English).

[AaronFreitas]

No problem on mistakes thats awesome to learn a second language! I will take a look at that letter I don't think I have read it. Thanks for taking the time to review :)

[RattyAdalan]

This is a translation (I hope is correct) of it. :)

"Hymn of Love*

If I speak human or angelic languages
but do not have love,
I am a sounding gong
or a clanging cymbal.
If I have the gift of prophecy
and understand all mysteries
and all knowledge,
and if I have all faith
so that I can move mountains
but do not have love,
I am nothing.
And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor,
and if I surrender my body to be burned
but do not have love,
I gain nothing.
Love is patient,
love is kind.
Love does not envy,
is not boastful,
is not conceited,
It does not dishonor others,
it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love finds no joy in unrighteousness
but rejoices in the truth.
Love bears all things,
believes all things,
hopes all things,
endures all things.
Love never ends.
(...)
the partial will come to an end...

* 1 Cor 13. 1-8



Sorry, In my before comment I wrote bad title. :)

[AaronFreitas]

That is a beautiful poem... thanks for sharing!

[RattyAdalan]

My pleasure! :)

The longing for someone to love is the grand quest and your words say it so well.
Great write.

[AaronFreitas]

Thank you very much Melinda! Someday it will come... patience is a virtue :)

Despite the longing and the low-ish mood in this one Aaron, it has a strong positive undercurrent that is testament to the narrators innate inner strength; phrases like;
"I wouldn’t say I’m hard to love" and "...hasn't arrived yet" plus others all show that there may be sadness but there is no despair.
we can sometimes look too hard and miss things.
The last stanza is a knockout my friend. :))

[AaronFreitas]

Thank you very much ANTO. You make a great point when saying sometimes we look too hard and miss things. I think now its about finding someone that makes me happy... loving them for who they are and their imperfections. Thank you so much for the review my friend!

Who said romance was dead? Very beautiful poem and I think the font/ layout added to the style well done!

[AaronFreitas]

Thank you very much new friend :) Romance will never die... may be hidden sometimes but never dead and gone :) Thanks for the review

[Deepika]

Good one Aaron! There's no point in persuading someone that doesn't value the inner beauty. Things will happen when they are meant to. Pure love is worth it's wait!

[AaronFreitas]

Thank you very much Deepika :) You are right when you say love is worth the wait.... I only want one love forever not many loves til I die :)

[Nadia Gerassimenko]

My dear friend, God is saving your one and only queen for you at the right time and at the right place and at the right mindset. Believe me when I say this to you! You have a kind and gentle heart full of love and deserve only the best one out there for you! I thought this was a sweet poem, pure and true.
