Hunger for Love

 

The days all run into one another
Each one seems just like the other
I go about the day thinking of days gone by
Sometimes I laugh, sometimes I cry.


My hunger to be loved by you, blinds me to the facts
Like reading more into what he says or how he acts
Sometimes I see things, which are not there.


In addition, I get crazy and my heart gets scared.

Does he love me? Alternatively, am I hearing what he does not say?
Like"I love you"or"with you I promise to stay"
On the other hand, was it my words whispered in my ear?
In addition, once again I am hearing what is not real.


I get confused and I tend to wonder and worry
Which makes me move too fast and makes my heart hurry?
Have patience with me for I only fear being hurt
For I gave my heart once, and for that was burnt.


So if I come on too strong and way too fast
It is just the fear from my hurtful past,
Moreover, when I get like this I need you to let me know
And tell me i am moving too fast and to take it real slow



Joyce James

"dont we all have a hunger for love and a fear we wont get it? " Yes Joyce, we do. I lovely poem of the fear of hurt and the fear of love. Could we all buy Love Spell's the witches would be very rich indeed! A sad poem - well written in tears of pain. Regards Donkerman
