(14) 1/30/83 Happy Valentine's Day

In a quiet place somewhere

sweetly dreams a gentle man

he dreams thoughts I feel right now

Yet he doesn't I can



A very thoughtful and caring man

his lovely words cannot be spoken

You see, the "right woman" hasn't come along

And tonight his heart is broken



So rare a man is he

who loves with all his might

that's why it's hard to understand

how he could be alone tonight



To think right now, he dreams of me

and yet, I have never come to be

the things that we could do and see

but, he just can't seem to find me



Lonely Man, do not be sad

For I could be your valentine

I do not know just where you are

but tonight our love has intertwined

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I didn't know David wouldn't be able to get me out of his mind.  I didn't know he'd lean on me whenever someone didn't work out.  I didn't know I'd lean on him.  We accepted that we'd never marry each other.  We'd accepted that both of us were searching for THE ONE.  I knew it wasn't David, because he'd never have left.  I certainly knew it wasn't Tom.  Asshole!  I thought about destiny.  I thought about God.  There had to be a soul mate for me.  God was not cruel.  He wouldn't leave me here with no one to love me.  I thought about who my soul mate might be.  Wouldn't it be nice if that beautiful man dreamt of me?
