Is what we are given
All that we need
Or is there a fire inside
That can never be quenched
Do we always want more
Or things we just can’t reach
Will we ever be satisfied
Or is there always a desire
That drives us to want
What is beyond our means
Written for Fandango’s One-Word Challenge (FOWC) – given
As we sit in silence
I wonder if you care
There are times
I feel I am not enough
Not enough friend for you
Not enough woman for you
Not enough love for you
I feel that I am only
An adequate stand in
Holding this space open
Until you can find
Your real future
Your true love
Your soulmate
Until you find her
And start your life with her
I will wonder deep inside
Why I can’t be enough
Not enough now
Not enough later
Not enough ever
Written for Fandango’s One-Word Challenge (FOWC) – adequate
Fire in my heart
Desire in my body
Thoughts only of you
But it will never be
You see me only
As a friend
Someone to talk to
Not a body worth touching
Someone to laugh with
Not a heart to beat with
But in my eyes
We are bound by more
We know each other so well
We are souls entwined
In a closeness that is
A once in a lifetime union
If only I could be enough for you
Written for Fandango’s One-Word Challenge (FOWC) – bound
