A Heartfelt Unknown
I always wondered what it would be like to be loved.
Sitting, pacing, heart racing.
I never thought that I would wonder if I am loved.
Unknown, uncertain, unseen.
Smiles and laughter make me more certain.
Happy, blissful, over the moon.
Soon after I wonder was that all me searching?
Skin crawling, Eyes darting, me starting to fall
I ask petals to tell me if our love is real.
lost feeling, heart reeling, waiting to hear
One falls, then another, weighted with a question.
They blow with the wind and take with them answers.
Answers that I will never know.
