Love Poem: All I Need

All I Need

Searching for the time…
Awaiting your appearance…
Patiently, I wallow in my self affliction 
As you seem to draw near
I hesitate to believe your arrival
For so long
You’ve steadily approached- but,
Never settled
Through so many years of living without you
I’ve adapted, but never changed
I’ve adjusted, but never accepted
Accepted the fact that I am to live without you
I’ve never been complete
I’ve never seen complacence
Deprived of the world’s greatest emotion,
I’ve existed, 
But never lived
So now
As rumors of you linger
I maintain composure 
So that I am certain
That the feelings that I imagine 
Are what you shall bring
Love…
I yearn to call upon thy name
You are all I need
To call and hear your answer
To know once and for all,
That finally,
You are here for me
