Moments Alone

In this solitary moment I long for something

Something that will satiate my hunger for love

Those moments that I'm alone with myself

I long for that warmth and tenderness

That for once I want to feel the magic

That magic of having someone that makes me smile

And somehow make me cry at the same time

All those deep troubles that I keep

I feel them all when I'm moments alone
