All I Ever Wanted

All I Ever Wanted

A Poem by QuietPoet

All I Ever Wanted

In and out of relationships

I’m hating it more than ever

Because no one can be right

There’s always got to be something

 

 

All I ever wanted

Was someone sweet

That could treat me right

And it’ll be only me

 

 

I give so many chances

Even if they are messing up

So many times, I forgive

And break my heart over and over

 

 

All I ever wanted

Was to just have someone

I can count on without

Having to give myself up

 

 

I put my all into a relationship

Trying to make it work with all I have

Being the best girlfriend

Faithful, loving, caring..

What else do you want

 

 

All I ever wanted

Was to be worth something

To be cherish in every way

Even when it all goes wrong

 

 

I’ve been running around

Beating myself up to make them happy

This time I’m not going to fall so easy

Mistake after mistake..

Lesson after lesson..

'All I ever wanted' is the refrain of many a life. And it is not a lot to ask, but for many a man it is always too much, because they are not able to deliver such constancy. It is sad and is at the root of much grief. The more you try and cleave a man to you the more many will want to run. Winning the you man by becoming quietly and stealthily indispensible to his sense of his own worth is better than beating yourself up. As to the how of doing it...that is the trick which you must discover!

I guess that's why most of us live such long lives... trying to find all that we ever wanted. Expect the worst, hope for the best, and perhaps you'll find all you ever wanted somewhere in between. I feel your sadness... Really, I do. Hang in there. You'll find it sooner or later. Excellent.

I feel as if you have written this from experiences of mine. I can understand the feelings you have written with such palpable emotion. I love the ending, or should I say the beginning. Very nice ~ Judi :-)

This was a very emotional truthful piece. It was very well written with the desires of your heart shining through. Patiently waiting but never settling is what I took from this powerful piece. Nicely done.

Keep on keeping on honey, he is out there,
Just be patient and don’t look too hard,
But hay, what do I know?
Well done
