Story of a lonely girl

Folder: 
Old poems, 2003

As time goes by I stand here waiting

watching all the people walk past

smiles on their faces and love in their hearts

a skip in their step, a sparkle in their eyes.



It surrounds me like his loving arms should,

the way I wish he would look at me

and yet I know it can never be, you and me,

we may be a pair of true loves lost.



Yet I can never be certain of how you feel

all I know is it cannot be decided by you or I

we shall just have to let fate take its course

if it was meant to be then it shall in good time.



But for now all this will be is the story of a lonely girl

one who wishes and hopes all her life, never gives up

deals with all the hurt and pain, love and lust

never no- one to trust, until she met her soul mate.



No matter if I walk around or stand in one place,

its always the same feeling that creeps up on me,

that feeling of never knowing if it was meant to be

were you the other half that completes me.



All  I have to comfort me is the bitter darkness that surrounds me

as I sit here completely on my own in this tranquil place

I remember the time I met you, just for a few seconds

the way we connected, you understood me like no-one else can.



Yet now all I can think about is the future, what is out there

am I destined to be this way forever, nobody to love, no-one to care

thats why all I can do is pretend its alright, everythings fine

hope no-one notices the way I trully feel about this barren land.



But for now all this will be is the story of a lonely girl

one who wishes and hopes all her life, never gives up

deals with all the hurt and pain, love and lust

never no- one to trust, until she met her soul mate.



As I look down to the floor I see my reflection in a dirty puddle

and wonder why I feel this way, why is nobody able to see

just how unbearable it is for me to live this lonely life

while I can see you carrying on like I’m not even there.
