A Longing Poem by Lovingcritters ConSue

A LONGING

It seems in all the years I've lived.....
there has always been a longing
deep inside of me.
A wishing, a yearning, a dreaming,
a heart thirsty.

Looking back without regret, or repining
perhaps nostalgia
A heartsickness, melancholia wish for
the betterment in my sagas.

A yearning to seek earnestly, a desire
for beauty and good.
Happy endings if you would?

A fellow feeling for those hurt,
a benevolence,
Tenderness of heart for them,
a loving temperance.

A hunger never quite satisfied
Relief, easement, softening, soothing
comfort compiled.

Craving for long life to repair
the bad into good.
If only I could.
