Desperate Heart Poem by Grace Mutandi

I see you,
you are not my enemy, but rather my friend,
why should I hate you, why should i give reason,
Its not your fault, you are but only human,
you have a right, a right to err, a right to hurt,
a right to be selfish, a right to disappoint,
who am I to get in your way?
you forsake me, but i still hold on,
you throw me away and i still follow,
you injure me and i still stand,
stand for you and me,
cant you see, I'm right here, my heart is calling,
waiting on your love,
waiting on your comfort,
waiting on your protection,
you are my weakness, you are my sorrow, you are my sadness
I can't reach you,
you are gone, you are lost,
no matter how hard I try, we are world's apart,
your heart has shut its doors against mine,
and even though I sit and wait,
waiting for you to come out,
to come out and get me,
to come out and embrace me,
to come out and confess your undying love,
I seek, I hunt, I search, for my reason, to find you,
'you' the one I call my own
'you' the one I call my heart
but then i realise...........
I'll never have you,
I'll never find you,
I'll be just a 'desperate heart',
still trying to find you.
