See this sunset?  I watched it alone.
Sometimes (no,...all the time) I wish 
that I had someone to share it with.
Someone to stand beside me and see the beauty,
to feel the awe,
to share in the fantastic magic
that the sunset brings.
I can't help it.
I see the sun going down
and all it tells me 
is that this is yet one more day
that I have no one to share it with--
no one near who hears and sees and feels
the exquisite beauty that 
I see and feel.


What is it about we humans?
Why is it so important for us to share?


All I know is that every sunset,
every cloud,
every brilliant flower in bloom
is a miracle of nature
that I want, need, hope, wish
to share with someone
who truly cares
to see 
the magic and beauty
that I see.


Tell me,
tell me true--
am I wrong?
Am I silly or crazy
for wanting someone else
to share this with me too?


I wish I knew...
