Just once I'd like to be
The sun that shines on your face.
Just once I'd like to feel
Immeasurable security in your arms.
Just once, to be first
To be last, everything.
Just once to be beautiful,
Even if just in your eyes.
I want to be the princess,
The girl of your dreams.
But all at once I realize,
I'm none of those things.
I'll never be first in your heart.
I'll never be first in your thoughts,
Your dreams, your desires.
I'll never be that beautiful princess
That lights your eyes.
I'll never feel your sunshine
Warm my face on a cold day.
And now the painful part,
I have to let you go, set you free.
I have to find the light in my life,
Before all my hopes disappear...
Into your eyes.

First thing I've written in almost a year and a half. It's rough.
Please tell me what you think

wow, this one piece really does tug at your heart. It's got so many mixture of emotions in it. Not bad for not doing anything in a year.

Long time no see honey, but worth the wait. Simple, plaintive, honest, needs nothing else.
Good to see you back, hope to see you more.

Sounds rough. It seemed hopeful at first, even lightly pointed (I sensed a Barry White line in there and chuckled), but dragged me back down with the last half. Reminds me of a book called Captivating. Hope things get better.
