A Need To Be Sated

My heart and eyes fill with the sadness of many days and nights of loneliness,
I wince in pain at the thought of all the time alone that is to come,
So many tears have been spent in my dark lonely world,
All for love,
Love is the cause of my deepest pain and my sweetest joy,
Joyous happiness and laughter with him at my side,
Tears of sadness and despair with his absence,
I try to cry out for the tender love and sweet embrace I love for,
Unseen hands and silent shadows hush my cries of pain,
I begin to wonder if I can speak any more,
The happiness because a drug that I can't fill up on,
An addiction never to be sated,
I want, I need, and I desire,
Only to be teased by the warm loving arms I long for so deeply,
Only a taste of what I want,
Only a glimpse of what I need,
Am I doomed to want this constant love for always?
Or perhaps what I receive will one day be enough,
Enough to stop the hunger,
Enough to stop the tears,
Enough to bring the laughter,
And enough to fulfill my years.
