I Want Someone. Poem, by Zwitterion, at My poetic side

I want someone to read my silence

so my bonds of loneness break,

or aid me break my quiet and

set me free from myself.

I want someone to see in me

not the distance in my eyes,

but the agony of a soul

that's despaired of nearness all.

I want someone to walk with me

in the hush of quiet night,

and mingle with my torment there

and thus dilute me for a while.

I want someone to search for me

down my soul's throbbing depths--

maybe there a man is found

fixing up a broken dream.

I want someone so much now,

for it is just per chance I've learnt,

it takes just one to make a dream,

but two to mend a broken one.
