Literature Text

I'm listening to your voice
Across the telephone lines
And I know that you love me
Yet still I feel alone

You keep on talking
While I sit by in silence
Enjoying the babble of your words
And knowing
I'm not completely on my own

The world goes on around me
Yet still I want something more
Than a friend's voice
Broadcast from far away

I want to be loved
Completely for me
Not just parts, but the whole
To be enthralling, beautiful, and amazing
In someone else's eyes

But so far I'm not
Seen far behind my surface
Which to others and myself
Is nothing but ordinary

Yet I hope you find me someday
My perfect dream love
Because I feel lost without you
'Cause I have nothing to love

So I'm waiting on my dreams
That may never come true
Still my greatest ambition
Is just to fall in love
I wrote this while I was on the phone with my friend while I was feeling kind of lonely...

You have a wonderful way of putting words together that perfectly describe how I'm feeling. As I'm reading your words, it's as if they are directed towards me. I guess that's the beauty of poetry, you can make it what you want and interprate it in your own way. All I have to say, is keep writing, you're wonderful at it.
