Where Are You?

A poem about loneliness...about hoping to find your perfect match...something that's been on my mind, as well as others...I hope you like it.

Late at night,
Staring at the ceiling.
Tears soak your pillow,
Loneliness clutches your heart.

So sad to be alone,
Wanting someone to hold.
Yearning for someone to trust,
Someone to love,
Someone to be there for you.

Friends are nice,
But not the same,
Just not good enough.
Waiting for the one,
The one who matches you perfectly.

Wanting one chance to be loved,
And to share the love inside.
Where is the one that you desire?
The one who sees you as no one has seen you before,
The one who cherishes, who nurtures, and understands you.

So sad, so alone,
Your heart aches with grief,
But in that pain you feel,
Hope remains in a cocoon,
Silently urging you to go on,
And with that you decide,
Life will work out, someday.
