Something’s Missing
by Abe Brenner
I sit here with an unsettling emptiness
A valley of lost feelings and missing emotions
An eroded sense of purpose
Knowing what I need but unable to find it
Missing out on the joy of caring and sharing
A chain with a broken link, out there somewhere my other half
Thinking of the tender moments that was once to be
Finally ready to open up myself
Having so much to offer and no one to give it to
Waiting a lifetime to share myself with you
Agonizing over what could have or should have been
Oh the need to be wanted and alive again
Waking up a dormant body of love and spirit
Bottled up passion ready to explode
Basic human needs going unanswered
Trying desperately to overcome a gaping hole in my existence
Waiting for those special words
The ones that remove emptiness and tell me that you care about me
Missing the give and take that makes or breaks relationships
Knowing you’ll be there for me and I for you
Sharing our thoughts, desires and dreams
Partaking in the joy and pain of life together as one
Wanting so bad to hold you, wondering when I’ll be whole again
A piece of the puzzle in my life that is you
Realizing your mind is not in the same state
Life’s cruel twist of fate
It’s all here waiting, hoping that someday soon
You’ll walk back into my life
