Watching

I sit and wonder too much
about the what ifs and coulda beens
I think too much about the things
that will mostly never be
See it doesn't take much
to lead an empty heart
to fan a spark into a flame
It isn't your fault
you are always kind
you are always thoughtful
Much sought after traits
by guys like me
I read your post
and scan your comments
Wanting so much to be
a part of the life you lead
But I'll take what I can get
and try to be happy with it
That is my destiny
To live through another
in a fantasy world of my own creation
to dream of what life could be like with another
with someone like you
At least you know I exist
and that will have to be enough
