Deceptive

Hearing
untrustworthy
stories over the phone
angers me, yet I hold my tongue.
For now.

Passing Days

Although you are far,
you are always in my thoughts,
and I look forward
to the day we embrace once
again, counting down the days.

Clouded

Some days

the feelings cloud

my head like a harsh storm,

and I wonder when the sorrow

will end.

Disbelief

I believed you were not

like the others, 

Like your actions differed 

from the others 

That deceived me,

yet I was mistaken,

And I am left here 

to wonder how 

I could allow myself 

to be misled.

I can only learn

from this moment,

To be more cautious

in future encounters,

Yet I am left with

a lingering sense 

Of betrayal 

from what transpired

Between you and me.

Stories to Share

Each person brings
their own story

To weave with other
tales as life unfolds.

We share to gain
deep connections,

Hoping that one's story
can find another voice

To add cadence
to their rich tale.

Each person brings
their own story

To tell in the journey,
and sometimes spend

Years in seeking
someone to share

Their words, so they
don't spend their lives alone.

Bonding

Loved ones, during times
of great need, treasure gentle
words and loving deeds
as they endure their darkest
moments, strengthening the bonds.

Unique

People
seek out soul mates
to complete them, to share
passions in life, those unique to
a few.

Search

I search
for connections,
kindred spirits to reach
out and share my innermost thoughts
and dreams.

Gaze

I see

your beaming eyes

and feel joy in my heart.

I can't imagine life without

your gaze.

Set Aside

I can set aside

all my stress and hardship to

spend more time with loved

ones. We would laugh together,

and share memorable stories.

The Doorway

I think

about stepping

through the doorway, finding

the peace I've been searching for in

my quest.

Venturing

We all venture out

to find the perfect match to

compliment our lives.

Leaning

Leaning

into your warm

embrace, I'm able to

let the stresses of the day melt

away.

Dream of the Day

On this calm morning,

I dream for what I really want:

someone who listens,

who truly understands my

needs, wherever he may be.

Out of Reach

Soothing words

and stories,

Seemingly

out of reach

As I continue

to follow

My unique

thread of life;

Creating an

intricate path,

Searching for

that connection.

Journey to Serenity

A new year

is here,

the quest for

Serenity just as

important as

before;

The search for

true companionship,

the ability to

Trust in another

completely,

sharing

Thoughts, dreams,

and actions with

another.

I hope to discover

the answer while

on this journey.

Passing Days

As the

hours,

days,

weeks

go by,

our souls

weave

together,

our threads

gliding,

interlocking

to create

a pattern

sacred

to our

lives;

the more

we talk,

share,

dream,

the more

intricate

our

creation

becomes,

until our

threads have

woven

into one

glorious

story.

Entwined

As the

year closes, I

long for what I truly

desire from another, souls

entwined.
