In the sticky mighnight breeze
I cannot move, my gaze is torn;
from the many twinkles in the sky,
my heart and mind alike have been adorned.
I cannot help myself but to
ask the heavens if they might know,
how many times my battered heart
will have to heal it's many blows?
Time after time again you learn,
just as the clouds shielding the stars.
You choose not to let those you meet,
anywhere close to the path of your heart.
Yet I've shared my life with many souls,
and still have yet to find;
the one whom brightens my saddest day,
the man who woos my heart and mind.
I know he has got to be here somewhere
looking up, at those gems stuck in the sky;
and even just the passing day,
brought us that much closer to saying "hi".
Waiting here with only a vision,
and a dream so vast and crystal clear.
I want to share my life with you,
I'm simply waiting for you to find me here.

Nickelback ; Gotta Be Somebody
The search for true love is hard, and none of us want to be alone! At the same time, we can't such into something that may be wasted. Definately a challenge waiting for that one special someone.... ( :

A fine write all around, however it would be much appreciated if you could run a spell check (it's provided) and watch specific grammar errors, poetic lisence is of course, allowed, but with a question of ownership "woos" should be "woo's nice vocabulary and flow.

Excellent job, good use of rhyming, and fits the song beautifully, I can feel the longing in the words
"How many times my battered heart
will have to heal it's many blows?"
Very powerful, very meaningful
Thanks for your entry, and good luck
