Anchor

Suspended in midair..
somewhere between the place
where dreams and reality meet..
Drifting, wandering aimlessly,
unsure which direction to take
He is sometimes,
someone she doesn't really even know..
Everything she thought she ever wanted..
but sometimes.. he is just so hot and cold
Sometimes she's on top of the world
and sometimes he's nowhere to be found..
and she's floundering like a fish out of water..
Not really sure why it is she hangs around..
Just looking for an anchor..something to hang onto..
A reason to believe because when it's good it's great
And there was never anything better..
But on days like this she's looking at the door..
And planning her escape.. someone toss that girl an anchor...
Before she throws it all away, and turns and runs
Again.

About this poem:
sometimes you have to just hang in there when the going gets rough..
And endure the ups and downs..and wait for it to turn around,
Sometimes you just need someone to toss you an anchor.

Sounds like you need a Rope Friend, when troubles look tooo big, maybe they are, but i think love takes work, but should never be a burden, and should hardly ever leave doubt, Hope this helps, teddybear bouquet heart wings

Thanks for your words Larry... it's never easy.. but sometimes we have to just hang in there and not be so quick to throw in the towel.. something some of us are too quick to do.. hug teddybear

For me it has become just relax and if i find Love ok, and until i do thats ok too, But to Rush, Isnt OK, and to feel Uneasy is a Flag....

Love should Compliment Our Lives, NOT complicate our lives!

I will be Patient and wait for love, if it Finds me I have a gift
If it dont, I havnt lost anything!bouquet
