Can You See Me

Can you see me As I stand waiting For the day you recognize I am the one you have been searching for Yes I pray the day will come When you open your eyes and finally see me As the one who was meant for you Can you hear me As I stand waiting Silent in the dark loneliness of my world Hoping one day to feel the comfort of your loving arms around me Would you love me If you could see me For what I would be If you could see me Yet with lips sealed I am found standing in silence Seen bland and without color Pasted upon the stale wall of observation Longing for you,,,, yet even more so for myself.......to see the color within. Life’s not easy with its maybes and it’s “if onlys”

Hi Darrell, I thought I left a comment on this lovely poem, so filled with longing, when I first read it. I guess not, sorry. I enjoyed it.

Wow ! Thank you James. This work has one of my favorite thoughts : Would you love me If you could see me For what I would be If you could see me How glorious we feel and delightful we become when we are truly loved…. Have a great day James !
