Restless Nights, Restless Mind

Catdog
I know it's because I've never loved another
To the extreme that I love you
Not even picturing my life with any other
My future remains true to you
I could not begin to foresee
Any place I'd rather be
Than in your arms every single night
Making it succeed with all my might

Even though times I seem uncertain
I know that one day from you I will obtain
The knowledge of how you truly feel
When it's the right time I will know
The feelings you have for me are real
That you'll never have to try to show
The assurance of us I ask so often
Because the clarity you will give to me
The wondering curiosity you'll soften
That you sincerely do care, set me free

Of all the haunting emotions
All those stupid questions
The control I've lost of my mind
You will tell me, no longer will I rewind
All the times I had to dig deep and ponder
Setting the facts straight, growing fonder

Until the times comes, I cannot control my thoughts
Especially on circumstances we've incurred this eve
Never having to gamble what kind of shots
The chances of keeping you, then I will know, believe

Only then will I know the reasons you keep me here, your true wants
That day I will be assured of what you truly expect of me
Never filling my head with all the reasons I'm here, the taunts
That together forever, that moment on knowing we are meant to be

Not trying to push the issue, not wanting to press you to commit
But I don't know how much longer I can tell myself your reasons legit
That forever by my side, always protecting and supporting me
Knowing your feelings are the real reason, truth that sets us free
Until the day my heart desires and fully content
We will decide the level of us, to what extent
That we will reside together, how long, we'll know
Until then there are no boundaries in which we grow

The sooner I can hear those words
The sooner I can remove all the blurs
That are overwhelming in my head
Wondering of the things unsaid
All the nights I can't sleep unaware of love displayed
The night will come of true sleep in which I prayed
Only to get some sleep each night
Finally you will turn out the light
From the restless worries that keep me awake
Falling quickly asleep, all the dreams I will partake

Knowing for certain my heart I gave freely, so much
Wasn't because you needed someone to help, a crutch
Sincerely I shall know you remain here for love
A blissful moment from the heavens above
Conclusively a light will shine upon us
All in my head, all it ever was

    Beautiful....I love your work and this is a a lovely piece of work art...we all question love at one point or another...whether its from a family member, a lover, a friend, or even God Himself...excellent form and expression.

    So very beautiful and enhanced by the breathtaking picture. If only to know love was there and never had to be questioned, we would then fall deep into sweet dreams without worry or fear.

    You have got a mastermind and super-brain!How you are able to depict life in such a realistic manner!
    Your poems give the essence of life,which can be given only by a Ninety year old person.
    Your understanding of human life and its analysis are worth like a Shakespeare!
