I Hate Being Single

My being single is weighing on me again. This happens every now and then. It’s usually brought on by something. This time it was brought on by a dream I had this morning. No… it’s not one of those dreams. *ahem* This one was kind of weird, but nice.
(Here’s the weird part) I was reclining on a conveyor belt, traveling through an old German town with a woman who reminded me of a friend I was very much into whose married now. (Now, the not weird part) We were snuggling, laughing and teasing each other. Nothing more than that. Just being close and enjoying each other’s company. I don’t remember being so happy and content in a long time. And then I woke up.
I hate being single.

I really like your website. I wrote this poem recently and I hope it’s not too presumtuous to share it:
Forgive me Lord
for these days I leave you
hanging on that cross…
bruised and pierced by man’s transgressions,
my transgressions.
Suffering and alone
My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?
My god.
it is finished.
Forgive me Lord
for these days I walk
while whispering of the truths you told us…
But it is in the dark I try to comfort your beloved.
I am in the dark …
I do not see.
What was it for?
What the hell
were these last three years about?
Your power, Lord. Where is your power?
Your power to stop my madness?
Your power to stop this cancer?
Your power to cast out demons and love the unlovable?
Your power to pull money from fishes, and fishes from oceans, and oceans from reeling?
Your power Lord, where is your power?
Forgive me Lord
for these are the days I am just a voice
in the crowd…
crucify Him.
I’ve been struggling lately with being single, too.
