Longing

Pretty, sweet and patient as the morning sun

She smiles and laughs hiding her inner longing

As she portrays herself as needing no one

She skillfully rejects the thoughts of belonging

Her cheerful nature belies the wanting within

She needs someone to make her totaly complete

Yet hiding behind a wall of mirrors once again

The armoured walls allow her to be discrete

She needs a matching spirit tender and serene

To touch her kindly heart and make her realize

She is such a unique and prescious being

Worthy of the gaze of only true patient eyes
