Mahalo and Aloha...


I long to be in a far away place...
one where my problems can't find me,
but you can.
i long for your endless embrace...
the kind that tells me that everything is just fine.
I long to see the light shining on your face
to hear the words i love you sweetly slide across your lips...
I long to tell you all that i've encountered,
and that i thought of you the whole way through.

but i cant have what i long for.
My problems will be waiting for me in my mind when i return
You wont be here for me to hold longer than a day
and the words i love you will never come my way.
I can only tell you how i feel in my dreams
and even that isn't real.

how can you see me, hear me, and not have a clue.
you tell me you're looking for love...
one that wont harm you and will be forever loyal.
One that is real for all the right reasons.
but only in your drunkenness can i say what i truly feel...
only when you cant hear me.
you ask my advice on women,
and its so hard to give.
Do you understand?
CAN you understand?

But even through all the tears, and all the years,
I'm still here.
Waiting.
But i cant wait anymore.
the pain continually eats at my soul.
and i know,
and i must learn to accept.
my dreams of a life of love and happiness cannot come true...
at least,
not with you.
