Not content

Not content

A Poem by Chuck
"

The feeling of being pushed by the storms of my desires for a relationship and my desire to be content without one

"

I am tossed by waves, thrown by storms,

A small boat in the ocean.

My feet firmly planted on shifting sand

Never able to find a foundation.

My heart chasing wave after wave,

only to see them crash away.

I do know life’s true foundation,

I have been born again.

Completely enveloped in my Lord,

Is where I am found.

Why can I not be content,

Living where I am.

Why does my heart so want another?

Why can’t life be enough?

I look and hope, chase and dream

Hoping that I can find her.

But time and time and time again,

Only ending up broken

It is hard for me to admit

Even to myself.

The loneliness that I endure,

And the relationship I want

As I battle between the two

the storms rage on

Wanting to be content, alone

But not content to wait there

Good expression... You are welcome...
Your poem is so true
Why can I not be content,
Living where I am.
Why does my heart so want another?
Why can’t life be enough?

Human is a typical species it is never content, makes problems on his own and keeps solving it the whole life time, beautiful by the way
