Him

Nervously waiting, while anticipating the good That I know will soon be here. Patiently pacing for I long to be understood And for him to erase the fear. I know it's my job to care for myself. That, I will never forget. Still, I can see my baggage upon the shelf And my goals that are yet to be met. The active happiness inside of my soul Is strong yet so completely alone. I need a partner; for him to play the role Which supports my strength and the skills that I hone. Aimlessly, I've paved the paths of my life. Impatiently placed; without regard to time. Dearly I've paid and have endured the strife So I seek refuge in these words that I rhyme. But wouldn't it be great to have a companion in this? A friend, a lover, a better half! Longingly, I yearn for his sweet kiss. Then, we will venture on the right path.
