Waiting and Wishing

Oh how I wish to be 
your muse,
your love,
your one and only.

Oh how I wish to be,
no longer the lost
and the lonely.

Oh how I wish to be,
the love that you nuture
your past, present and future.

Oh how I wish to be,
something more that what I am.
Someone loved, and not a sham.

I am an original,
I am beautiful,
My beauty is more than physical.

I wish to be more than what you see. 
If only your eyes would open and look toward me.

I am open, honest and lovely,
although love has stricken me 
sad, lost and lonely. 

My future stands in mine own hands, 
however I cannot move forward. 
Im stuck lost in foreign lands.

Oh how I wish to be the one that love finds.
