...To Be Loved... Poem by Whitney Nicole Albright*
...To Be Loved...
I asked a languished friend,
“Why did you never marry? ”
His pupils seemed to transcend
As he thought on the contrary
“I didn’t wish to be settled
One woman, all my life’s days
Like the wind, I was unsettled
I was just born that way.
I didn’t want to give up me
Let my desires be vaguely haunted
Freedom, freedom, freedom..
Was all I ever wanted.”
I said, “You’re way different from me! ”
As if he’d given me a shove
“For all I’ve ever wanted,
Was only to be loved.”
You do not just have the beauty So oozing with great charm but you do have the artistry to weaved words so really warm for this I can not help really but to fall in love with your charm.
it feels great to love and be loved, dear Whitney. this is a well penned poem of expressing real emotions. i love it! : -) : -) : -) : -) : -) : -) : -) : -) : -) : -)
This is a exceptionally well written and beautifully expressed poem, Whitney, and one that tells a fascinating story. I liked your imagery and phrasing in this fine poem very much. A lot of poets are a bit squeamish about using dialog in a poem, but you didn't mind it a bit, and did an outstanding job in conveying the two people's words in this poem very effectively. You are a promising poet with considerable talent. Carl.
Very beautiful. So many women (men too) decide that 'freedom' is better than being in a relationship. What they do not realize is that love gives you freedom in more ways than rejecting it ever could!
