She holds herself from the oceans wind. <br />On a sultry August night away from her friends. <br />I can see the wailing of a lonely heart. <br />A lonely mind and a lonely start. <br />The summer was ending and I've seen this before. <br />She was looking for something, something more. <br />As she sits on the sand and craddles her loss. <br />The wind subsides as the ocean is tossed. <br />Her dreams she told me and then soon forgot. <br />No need for mine as she needed them not. <br />White picked fences and a house the same. <br />She was looking for something or someone to blame. <br />A tear was building on the side of her eye. <br />A tear was building on the side of mine. <br />I held her close as the boardwalk lights shined. <br />I tried to ease her youthful and weary mind. <br />She came to me on a springtime night. <br />I answered the door as she stood in the light. <br />A night with her friends that I did not know. <br />Retired to her home as young lovers will grow. <br />But, that was then some months ago. <br />Now we stand on the beach as the wind blows. <br />She holds herself so distant this time. <br />Not like before as she's still looking to find. <br />A few weeks passed from this night above. <br />Slowly drifting from friendship and love. <br />She said we were spending to much time together. <br />On her porche at home in such rainy weather. <br />That was all she needed to say. <br />After all she was waiting for her special day. <br />I was just what she needed, I gave her all I could bring. <br />I was just what she wanted, She Was Looking For Something.<br /><br />Gulliver Gimble<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/she-was-looking-for-something/
