Array ( [sid] => 38560 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Set Me Free [time] => 2004-03-14 06:39:13 [hometext] => Yet another poem about the one I await...*twiddles thumbs*... [bodytext] => I lie awake at nights and wonder.
That he was with me is what I ponder.
It is hardly fair that he and I are not Meant to Be-
I thought that my imagination would set us free.
It hasn’t, and I sit and wonder, WHY?
I’ve done everything right… I wish I could cry.
But I can’t because I’m a cold-hearted
Maybe I would have been better off reincarnated as a fish.

Everywhere I look people are having fun
And it makes me FURIOUS that I can’t be with The One.
Bargaining with God has achieved nothing,
At times I can almost hear Him laughing.
This is one reason why I question Him and all He stands for-
Couldn’t He try to help me a bit more?
However, I have not given up the fight,
Because I know that what we could have would be so right.

Seeing shadows of him wherever I turn will not sustain me
I have to have him- I need him here to be with me- please, sweet, set me free.
My dreams are all that is left of us and what we would have had
If people let us be, we could have…
Unrequited love? No. If we were able to speak, it’ll be obvious,
That he’d love me is what they find curious.
After the bittersweet Winter, Spring will follow
Leaving me feeling empty, shallow, unloved and hollow.

Without him by my side, I feel lonely and alone
Seeing couples in love makes me livid as I walk home.
I Need what they just merely Want.
From two different worlds, he holds my heart,
Just like I want to hold him- why were we forced to part?
Friends surround me, I admit.
But I am in love with an Untouchable-I will never quit.

You hear me, up there?
Stop is not on my vocab list, .
Never will I quit, ever.

He’s mine- why haven’t I gotten him yet?
Please explain this to me, and I’ll let you be

I feel your pain, Dark Mistress, but I also think that this kind of negativity towards God is bad karma and that God may prolong your wishes a little longer just to show you that good things come to those who wait. Coming from me, it is a bit hypocritic because I'm a very impatient sort of person myself and I should probably take my own advice. Haha. If you want, you can just disregard this comment, but I hope you don't. I hope you find the patience somehow even if it's not because of me.
