Wishing

Wishing for something that is no more!!

I sat in the sun, wishing that I had the warmth of your arms wrapped around me.

 

I sat in the pouring rain, wishing for the time we were in the steamy shower together.

 

I sat staring at your picture, wishing I had you  here in the flesh.

 

I sat in our favorite restaurant, wishing we were on the dance floor together.

 

I sat listening to our song, wishing for old times .

 

I sat listening to your voice on the answering machine, wishing  that I had you to talk to.

 

I sat watching you with her, wishing it was me.

 

I sat watching you kiss her, wishing you were kissing me.

 

I sat in front of your house watching you and your new family, wishing..............

Well written.
Wishing isn't a healthy thing though, in my opinion. Got to do something about how you feel.

this is really sincere ya know. you havent had to rhyme in any of your poems. romantic and suttle yet solemn, with a deep sense of longng that follows each line.

enjoyed it ^

I wasn't expecting the last few lines. Hurtful ending.

I like this one. Its hard to let go sometimes...But we can't hold on forever...One of these days we have to let them go, rather than clipping their wings so that they may not fly. Very good write.

A very interesting poem. The ending gave me a surprise. When we lose something we can't get back. Leave a hole that won't be filled. A very good story in your words. A outstanding poem. I like it all. A very good ending. Thank you.

this is moving; very sad because everytime she sits...sadness creeps and stays.... the speculator is left with emptiness and the player is happy living his life...if this was my friend i would say to her...stop speculating and make a life out there...start walking, dancing and loving...
