I Want To Know What Love Is

Imagine the things I could see, the

Wonders when I close my eyes.  An
Awakening, a treasure in disguise.
Needing to fill the barren heart I show,
To love and be loved, and wonder if I'll know.

Teased for things I didn't know exist, expressing
Over and again, the hurt just persists.  To

Know the wonders of truth of the heart,
Never have I seen, always torn apart.  To
Only see, nothing more than foolish lies, and
Wash away the sorrow with tears that I cry.

With heavy heart and soul, continue on my way,
Hoping that soon, somewhere, someday,
A spark of light will shine down on me.  A light
To take away heartache and misery.  One day, I'll

Learn, just pass it up and let it go.  But just
Once, fulfillment I wish to know.  A small
Victory for my heart that softly beats, rather than
Experience all of Love's defeats.  For now,

I'll hide inside my wall I've built, where
Sadness is my prison, the only thing I've felt.

    Thank you for your comments. I have 'unhid' and it most often makes it worse, but I am trying. Again, thank you.

    "For now,

    I advise you not to hide. I did this and even rejected the love of a precious man out of fear and sadness. You see, when you imprison yourself in sadness, you become blind and love will come your way but you won't see it. So instead, free yourself from this prison and keep your eyes open with happiness and hope in order to unblock the door of your heart and then, your life would change with the birth of a new love.

    Beautiful

    You already know what the feeling of love is?
    Else why does it pain you so to reach and want the heaven of it?
    And once love is touched, we wish it never to leave.
    Your heart in this verse shows the ache in you, for that kind of love to return.
    Look not for love, for it will always find you.
    And most times it is staring you right in the face.
    Because it never comes in the form that you dream.
    And usually we search so hard that we cannot see it.
    So worry not Storm, because your heart loves and needs to be loved, and always this shows in the eyes.
    So open your eyes to all around you,and let it find you.

    Sweetie, I just know that your time for knowing love and sharing love is just around the corner; you're too much of a wonderfully beautiful person to not know love!
    May your time come soon; love ya!
