The Boy I've Never Had

I feel like this sometimes..

Where is the boy I've never had?

Off in hiding? Hoping I don't find him?

Maybe he doesn't exist, 

maybe he's a figment of my imagination 

Where are the kisses I've missed?

Upon his sweet lips 

Where are the hugs I've longed for?

In his strong arms 

Where is the boy I've never had?

Trying to look for me but doesn't know where to start?

Maybe he isn't looking hard for a reason 

Maybe he doesn't want me after all 

Where are the I love you's?

On his deep voice 

Where are the night of deep passion?

Upon his body 

Where is the boy I've never had?

In my dreams where he is lost 

It's true what people say 

You can't lose something you've never had

Very beautiful poem, easy to relate with ! I can see we all at one point have been feeling like that, longing for a partner that simply seemed to not exist. My advice is to not lose hope and never give up, that person might be closer than you think, maybe it's just a matter of time or maybe you have to go through some change (attitudes you need to change, situations you need to face etc) before that person show up in your life. Loved it :)

A very raw and heartfelt poem. I have related to this yearning feeling before. You express it well.

Thank you! I am glad you liked it =)

very wistful thinking...it's common to see poems on rejection, so this poem is a nice pace of change (sadness from non-existence, rather than experience)

I don't know what to say, all I can do for you is pray to God that He brings him back to you... I know your pain my frnd, I know how terrible it feels... When you miss someone without having any reason it's difficult to go with life... I just hope he comes back to you to clear away all your tears and pain...

My heartfelt wishes are always there for you Manda, these hard days will pass away soon...

Sincerely,
Dhiman

Thanks. I was inspired by a song I was listening to when I wrote this. Music is really a great inspiration
