Lonely Poem by Claire Ann Sansolis

To have that appreciation from someone
To have that passion from someone
To have and to hold from someone
To be wanted and valued from someone

To be stopped at and be cherished by someone
To be respected and wanted by someone
To be treasured and celebrated by someone
To be loved and adored by someone

14 years I stopped longing
14 years I thought I am fine
Til one day I ran out of excuses
I found my heart beating for someone

I guess, yes  I am really lonely
To prideful to admit I am okay
Now how can I decide to move forward
When this heart is bleeding for someone

I go back to wanting and needing
I go back to wishing that someday
This heart would hush and be quiet
To reckon the loss may retaliate

Now I face the loneliness before me
'Be quiet, I am loved, I am wanted.
He died in my place just to love me
For no man can love me, than He can'

Oh please heal the loneliness inside me
Ignite me, embrace me, engulf me
This well in my heart needs a lover
Lord Jesus please come now and take me!
