All By Myself (to J.M.) by Melanie A BennettThe meadows are all quiet now
The wind down to a whisper
The sun is setting beyond the fields and mountains
I sit...thinking of him and her
Why does he love her like he does?
He just seems so afraid
His feelings must be as jumbled up as mine
I wonder if he feels my pain
Every time I look
I look with longing eyes
Perhaps I look too often
How much is too much?
How will I know when to put my feelings on hold?
Torn between myself and my feelings
At times I feel bold
And others I just want to run and hide
Wondering if he will ever love me
Is making my brain and heart ache
Why can't he be open about what he feels?
I have to know
It's too hard to wait
And the wait is far too long
Are my feelings too strong?
If I must wait any longer
I don't know what I'll do
Perhaps God will tell me in his own little way
He can send down an angel
Someone to tell me if I am wasting my time and feelings
I wish my heart was the sun
It could set and rest awhile
As the sun sets I think about us
But is there an us?
Or is it just me...
