Sunny Day in the Park…..



The sun had control of the sky today.
I was able to lose myself in the deepest blue.
Sitting in a park alone on a sun drenched blanket.
My mind going anywhere and everywhere in journey.

Snapped into reality at the speed of loneliness.
To be blessed with this day but unable to share its beauty.
A day like this is what love must equate with in nature.
Bright, warm, and enveloping is the day, is a lovers arms.

The smells attack the senses, causing the brain to sigh.
Life is all about this day it’s just missing a hand to hold.
Without notice I sit stroking the empty space on the blanket.
A soul to love, shoulders to hug and lips to kiss is missing here.

Silence floods the space where conversation should exist.
Sadness enters here too simply because of the desire to share.
A butterfly in erratic flight flutters by and makes me smile.
As I smile, I bow my head and sigh. A smile from what could be.

Silent prayer begins to ramble throughout my conscious mind.
Thankful for the day in praise but asking for a mate to share with.
A single tear with dual meaning makes its way down my check.
Happy to be in the day, the moment but longing on the lack of love.

Perhaps one day I will be able to wrap my arms around myself in love.
Then, and only then will someone else be able to really see me for me.
At that time, with the walls coming down, maybe a love will break through.
On my blanket, sun on my face, I embrace myself and allow love for me, from me.
