Not Enough

Not Enough

A Poem by Alexis
"

Sometimes we just need more from people and often times we don't receive that nourishment.

"
Everyone wants to love and to be loved;
but what happens when love just isn't enough ? 
The love we have doesn't feel enough 
empty words and empty touches yet
your next to me; but my bed still feels empty.
Love just isn't enough not for me; not for us 
There was a time we were comfortable 
so very comfortable and I felt every touch. 

Now not so much; I yearn for our passion to reignite 
like the fire in my eyes
when you told me you loved me for the first time 

But the days go by soon the months turn into years 
days into nights; I ask will you ever be mine ? 
and you say " with time", then my heart breaks
a little on the inside.....
your just scared so you decide to run and hide from the love 
that's so clearly insight we proved that many times....
it just wasn't enough.

Love is hard. You need two people needing and wanting the same things at the same moment. Can happen. I liked the old saying. You don't find love, love find you.
"your just scared so you decide to run and hide from the love
that's so clearly insight we proved that many times....
it just wasn't enough."
The above lines, true for many. Fear of heartbreak, keep us in hiding. Thank you dear Alexis for sharing the amazing poetry and your thoughts.
