| The lonliness of it ovewhelmes me. I don't want to marry anyone now. I just don't want to be alone. My brother is so strong or weak... He can live alone, he says, in fact prefers it, for the time being. "That's what friends are for," he said. What happens when they move away? "New friends, of course," he tells me. I don't want to be alone. I am not unique in that manner, most people want someone. My other brother wants someone. but maybe she isn't there. Are all gems already connect to bands? My friend Erin wants a sweepaway romance, to a handsome stranger, Who will love her the rest of her and his days. I have another friend, Matt, Who wants to love and be loved, by a girl who he can relate to, and who intrigues him, Someone who he can keep on a pedestal above him, the high place he puts her. And pray that she doesn't from fall Anday wants a special girl. That will love him, and who has beauty, of face and spirit, and with sweetness and strength, to spare. Squirt doesn't know yet, But he will, When he knows who he is. For now, He guides all of us, With common sense and wisdom, unique to him. Brianna is still too young to really know, One that she reads of in the books, Is currently not a reality. I wonder, will it ever be? Ruthie looks for love in places available, She will have a family, Long before I do. Sarah doesn't know yet, Someone handsome of face, Someone kind, but stubborn, Perhaps, a man, who wears gray. Daniel wants a girl, Who will be strong, but whom he can protect. One that he sees, Having more attributes, than a pretty face. Ian doesn't know, He won't know, Until he grows up and out of himself, Or when he finds someone, That he thinks is perfect. Bethany will settle for less, and will learn, to love him. After convincing herself.... that he is enough. Beth will find peace in a man, Who is different than others. He will play guitar, as she does, But a sweet romance, of story book tales, Is not what this one dreams of.... |
