Are you kidding me?

I recently discovered a poem that I can completely relate to. It was on a fellow blogger.com website called "Are you kidding me?" I've been watching "Taxi Driver" lately and thinking a lot about what this piece talks about. I wish I could have thought of words so perfect to what I've been feeling. -->

Someone

All alone, empty and cold
wishing for a hand to hold
looking for somone who really cares
wanting someone to be there
someone to listen when i cry
someone whos not going to ask why
i need someone to fill this hole
someone who loves my mind and my soul
i dont want to be alone any longer
it seems im only getting weaker, not stronger
i want to know when it can be my turn
to finally be happy and not get burned
i have scars on my heart
ive been torn apart
but ive put my self back together
i cant live like this forever
i need someone to lift me up high
someone to encourage me to reach for the sky
i am ready for love, and everything that comes with it
but until it finds me here i sit,
all alone except for my fears
waiting for someone to dry my tears.

My Writing Project

I have started a writing project of my own on a separate site. I'm trying to create a story in a series of installments. Instead of writing it all and then trying to show it to people. I can write and then add and then change. I can get suggestions and comments. I'm hoping it will be fun and will turn into something that I am proud to have accomplished.
