I was thinking the other night
With a melody in my head.
One wish?
If only I had that
What would I do with it?
A million things came to mind
But a million can’t fit in one
So I refocused on my heart
Silenced every other urging
Listened deeply
To the beating
What I heard was surprising
It was the woman side of me
My body started swaying
To your name
That was the beat.
So if for just a moment
With closed eyes
And love in sight
I let my imagination wander
To this one wish of mine
I’d wish for you to love me
Loving you would be no task
I’d wish to hold your hand
And be near you once again
I’d wish that we could
Talk all night
And you could wipe my tears
I’d wish that wishes would come true
And you would be my man
If wishing were praying
I’d like it even more
A listening God
would hear my wish…
for emotions
prophetic.
Feelings that don’t lie to me
Reflecting what is true
My love makes this wish
Superfluous
…because my destiny is you.

The other night I heard Ray-J's song "If I had one wish"...
It got me to thinking about the sentiments of the song,altho it isn't the best song. I thought about the man I will eternally agape and I smiled and felt an ache inside. I wanted to write immediately but I was in the car and had nothing to write with. So first thing in the morning I sat down and wrote this. I could say who, in particular inspired this, but I won't. I'll just say that in time, it'll all work out. It is promised.

Wow!?! You said last night that this was just an expression. Well any man that can inspire such a personally vivid word picture of your heart's desires as this deserves some props! And a man that you would eternally agape?!?!?!? Oh what a virtuous man desires for! A woman with love unconditional! Love the post/poem sweetie! It was worth the wait. This gives me hope....that I will be such an inspiration

You are always trying to see who your next husband is...well guess what YOU DO NOT KNOW WHO HE IS!!!! None of those loosers you have been conversating with are going to be the one to light your eternal fire......smooches:)

@latinchik...hey babygirl, sometimes i go long periods of time and have writer's block...then one day something will inspire me. so it's ok if you can't write a poem right now...it'll come back. but in the meantime...try a journal or diary and just write whatever comes to mind..if you're sad or angry...or happy...or like someone...whatever. I did that all through highschool and still do. (my blog)
Stay encouraged! smooches sweetie!
If I had one wish...I would wish that I could be the one your heart desires...If I had two wishes the second would be to hold you tight...If I had three wishes the thrid would be to never let you go...
You are so Special...so talented...If I could just find that Genie...
