I sit here in the darkness of my room
alone with my thoughts and the screen
I have no ides where this feeling is coming from
But at the same time I do
Over and over again I have been let down
My heart starts to hope for possibilities
But at the same time I am guarded
Not completely allowing myself to dream
I see people being matched up
I hear my friend talk about her man
I see my other friend giggle over texts
I see the joy in my married friend's eyes
Oh how I have longed for that kind of joy
How I have desired to share a life with another
My eyes fill with tears as my heart grows heavy
I am saddened by my lonely state
My heart has been broken five times
Each new time has been worst than the last
This past time I doubted I would ever recover
For the damage reached into my spirit
I have recovered and am now starting to hope
My eyes seek out words of love and tenderness
My ears strain for affectionate whispers
My heart yearns to be ignited with passion
I am saddened by my desires
For as much as I hope and dream It cannot happen
There are no suitors that have come to pass
And God has not yet released me
Or if He has then I'm ever waiting
Waiting for the man He has for me
One who will protect my spirit through my heart
Who won't use lofty words without meaning
My heart and spirit are crushed
I dare not hope for fear of being denied
I dare not dream for fear of rejection
Yet I want to dream and long to hope
Whatever am I to do
My heart is sad and my spirits wane
I don't think that love will come again
I don't believe that it could bear to be broken again
