Hold me close,
Whisper in my ear.
Tell me everything you'd love to hear.
I need you!
Well,
Not you but it seems,
That no one else will do.
I want to feel!!
To love and be loved.
Once,
Not so very long ago,
I knew what it meant to be real.
The love I have for my daughter,
The only love I want to feel.
Choosing to love,
And learning to heal.
Letting go of the past,
Yesterday is gone,
Tomorrow is not here,
So take  the present,
And hold it dear.
