Starving

It’s hard to realize you are starving when you don’t know

Especially when you spent so long hiding in a shadow

I realized recently that I am starving and have been for a long time

Now it seems that I am destined to pay for my crime

I made a choice that I must live with forever more

On true happiness it seems I’ll never walk through that door

I am starving for attention from someone

But feel that I am going to fail in the long run

I am starving for a love I have never know

I know it is there for glimpses have been shown

I am staring for intimacy as it has been nonexistent

But the chances of that seem so distant

I am hungry for so much now

But to make it a reality, I don’t know how

I wish I could realign the stars for us today

But all I can do is give you this bouquet

I know we are further apart

But you still hold my heart

So while I pine for you

And wish for a dream come true

I know that we are not meant to be

I don’t think you will ever be free

So my hunger will continue to grow

Will it ever be sated, I just don’t know

All I know is that I am starving

I feel your pain and commiserate. Love, I always say sometimes, sucks.

Thank you Angel for your review. I think love can be beautiful, if you can make it through the struggles to get to a stable point. Of course then you have to work to keep it, but if its the right person... it really shouldn't be work...

Yeah, you're right. I usually feel the same way, but sometimes...Your poem just happened to cross my path at the wrong moment.A sad memory from the past came back in a dream.

I hope you find yourself in a better place today

[angel]
