That I Am Not Alone

That I Am Not Alone

A Poem by Querida

All I really want

Is to feel the wind in my hair

To have a horse between my legs

Moving ground under my stare

 

All I really want

Is sunshine every day

To smile into the light

and breathe the air that way

 

All I really want

Is hope and mysteries

Because without such things

where is life

where is life

where is the life that

God brings

 

All I really want

Is someone to care for

Someone to hold me

When times get hard

 

All I really want

Is to know

That I am not

That I am not

That I am not

 

Alone.

We all have our dreams and wants. I just wrote this. I hope you don't mind me posting it here, it seemed appropriate. It all adds up to the same, not getting what you want equates to being alone. i used to love riding and you capture it's freedom of spirit in this delightfully universal read. All the best for 2008, Tai

She wanted to take you to Ireland
To cuddle up in a cute cottage.
To be wild, green and free

You and her rolling in grass.
A writer's paradise at heaven sent last.
Pixies and the occasional Guinness glass

That's what she wanted
A retreat for you and her
To curl up by an open fire

With you stroking her desire.
Kissing her, extracting a purr
Of happiness

With her healing your hurts
day by loving day.
Raising you from grey.

We can do it together,
But not this way.
Alone, we both sink.

Finding paradise?
Never! Not without
Each other's hands.

To be alone
Is to be
On the brink....

okay, this was a good write, but a tough read. very emotional. your heart is there in those words for all to see. each line is a beat, those lines that repeat.

even the word "alone" is alone, in the end. well done, querida, well done.


faith, hope and love, tristan
