When will I ever matter?
When can I feel like I
am your number one, like
I am not just a fixture,
in your world of complexity
I always felt like I was
in the shadows, just waiting
for you to come over, to my
dark corner and shine your
love light, and give me the
warmth, that I so desire
I would come to you, needy
and loving and would be denied,
would be turned down, until it
fit into your schedule and even
then, it was few and far between
Am I, to be the one, who is
destined to a life of loneliness,
punished for my affliction of
needing to be loved and cherished,
to feel like I am truly one with
you, who says, you love me and
are missing my kisses and my touch
I ask you, (love) "What about me..."

Ohhhh, this is so very honest and sad, and heartfelt. No amount of praises would justify the emotion in this. I am typing thie s comment, tears are pouring out...geeeez. What a softie I'm turning into. You really got me with this. I cannot stand to see anyone sitting alone in a corner..not my style. I also cannot say no to stray animals that magically find their way to my home..LOL
Thank you for taking the time to enter my contest, I see this is a fresh write, thank you for that...best wishes to you, and happy Saturday!
Peace!
