Need (Huitain)

by Sylvia   Aug 29, 2009


A need to be touched and caressed,
by loving hands, hugged, kissed, adored.
Today, tomorrow, I'm obsessed.
An empty soul to be restored,
a true love not to be ignored.
My heart aches to hear your sweet voice
speak words of passion, my reward.
The void filled, now I can rejoice.

    Only few people in this world would not care for love, Silvia...those are the ones who value money and possesions more.
    I was born in a family like that and I am the odd one out. The only one to believe in God, the only one who never cared about becoming rich.
    I have observed them closely and I know first hand their lives and nighmares revolved ( past tense, most are no longer alive) about losing their wealth. It ate them alive, so to say.

    Love is all that truly matters. Never love anything that don't love you back is my motto;)

    *hugs*
