Just searching and searching, looking for something,
I know not what it is.
I can feel the yearn, the need, and realize its my heart,
My waiting heart asking for love.
And yet there is no reply, nothing.
How could this be happening to me?
Doesn't this only happen to others?
Then I realize I've been selfish, ignorant.
There's someone out there for me.
There's someone out there for everyone.
I just need to continue looking,
And someone will be there waiting.
Waiting like I've waited,
For someone to change their life forever; my life.
To enter the hole in my heart,
And stay there forever.

i really love this, i think it really speaks from the heart. Its written really well and i can fell the emotion and wanting. This poem almost feels like your heart wrote it not your brain! But anyway i really do love this because i think most people can relate, everybody wants love, at least some bit of it. Well done, i loved it! :)

I love this. It's the kind of writing that really speaks out. It has so much emotion that the reader actually feels it too! Anyway.. It's a really nice piece!(:

This is a very passionate piece of work, Julian! By the way, the first sentence really captures attention. Nice one!
