Light My Way To Your Heart

by Michelle   Mar 5, 2004


What I need right now
Is a soft place to fall
A space reserved just for me
To get away from it all...

What I'm yearning for
Is for You to hold out a hand,
Keep me from going down
Or provide somewhere safe to land...

I want You to care for me
If I'm having a difficult time,
And share my utmost happiness
When things are truly sublime...

The single life nowdays
Is so vastly over-rated,
I feel I'm just going through the motions,
As if my soul has been sedated...

You are always there for me,
But there just doesn't seem to be a way,
But I grow more restless deep inside
With each and every passing day...

Will "someday" never come?
Will the house always be dark when I arrive?
I don't really feel as though I'm living,
But that I'm on "auto-survive"...

Light the way for my heart
If you feel like I do,
Because I'm needing someone now
And that someone is You.

    hey mchelle! its 3.30 in the morning here, jus woke up.id left pc on so i thought id check email. that `bloody pi*sing me off`one ive just seen had me laughing for ages and im still sniggering as i write, i hear that almost everyday off of everyone,would love to hear you say it with yr accent. sent you email earlier, hope your getting them, thats so sweet of you to write me a poem, so touching.i WILL write one about you soon, try cut and paste when you log poems in, thats what i do after many frustrating attemps to quickly write it in, i emailed the host and he said that u have 15mins to write else it logs u off.
    yr poem here michelle is so sooo sad. very lonely, almost a loving but loveless soul watching her life go by, and added to what you said in email earlier bout yr parents long marrige, a longing to be secure in a happy loving relationship. wondering if it will ever happen. is it just something that happens to everyone else or just in films. something i feel myself on many an occasion.i think everyone except the happily married can relate to this poem, and since most people arnt happily married this piece has a universal appeal. dont know if this is making any sense michelle, im sleepy headed and looking longingly at my pillow. just thought id make contact incase my emails not gettin through, going now. `bloody pi*sing me off.` thats still tickling me. xxx
