Do you Believe

Dreams are dreams,
Unless you believe,
That one day soon
They will come true

I used to believe
That what I saw
Was what my life
Would soon involve

I hoped and prayed
For that day
I would met this man
And my life would be grand

The day did come
That we did meet
Yet something was so terribly wrong

His heart was broke
And on the mend
And the path he took
Provided great walls

No matter what I had seen
No matter what I had felt
The timing was wrong
And never would be right

This lifetime is not for us
Even though of what I had seen
But there is a love that knows no bounds
That will bind once again in a lifetime to come.

You were always there
To lend an ear, a shoulder, a hug
To make me laugh till I cried and my sides hurt.

You picked me up when I was down
You listened when I was pissed about life, about work
Never judging, never walking away

Then one day things changed
Not for you, but for me
And I grew scared.

How could I have let my feelings come this far
How could I have let this happen to me
How am I going to deal with this new feeling

Then one day I decided to tell
What do I have to lose
The least you could do is walk away

So I told you how I felt
Holding my breathe
Till I thought I would be blue.

You had no clue
And never realized
Just what had happened

Time moved on
And so did we
It was then I began to see

What I had seen in dreams of long ago
Would never come true
Would never evolve

There is always next time
The next life
The next path

Will you be waiting
Will you be there when I need you again
Do you believe we can find each other?

Do you believe
Do you believe
I sometimes wonder if you believe.

Reminiscing......

I was not a popular person in school.  I was more of a loner.  While I may have been true to me, I didn't have close friends, best friend who I could tell anything to.  I was not into the same things kids my age growing were.  I played sports, but in all honesty I was not the best.  Was I the best me while playing sports?  Sure!  Was I a star athlete, NO!  So then I had to have been brilliant, right?  No again.  I was the best me I could be.  Should I have applied myself more?  Sure, but I passed my classes with A's and B's which was good for me.  Then came college.  What an unexpected ordeal.  Not my favorite time in life at all.  Feeling lost and alone, I turned to people who I thought were friends, but not in a true sense.  Because I was out in the world unprepared, I followed like a sheep and almost flunked out of college.  We all make bad choices, but for me I wasn't sure I would live through ...

The Haunting

I worked so hard to push you away To push you from my mind But I find you creeping Creeping back in Lurking around Lurking in my dreams My dreams before deep sleep My dreams before waking Haunting me Haunting me of what I felt What I wanted What I loved more than I realized Touching me Touching me in that special way Your eyes dance with fire Fire built by desire Waking me Waking me from the slumber A slumber I brought on And thought I needed to be rid of you Feeling again Feeling again what I worked so hard to lock away Because you didn’t return the same love Because you didn’t see me Hurting again Hurting because of all the emotions I’m flooded with emotions Swirling around me Will I ever be free of you? Will you ever see me as I saw you? Will all of this old chaos settle my life? Will you settle this all or light the flames higher? Like a moth to a flame The feelings so raw Feeling so true Feelings so rare A flutter in my heart Where hope still lives Silly female wishes Or where the...

wondering

It has been a long time since I posted anything.   I have steadily been working on myself and finding out who is, Amanda Tachick.  What does she want, where does she want to be, is she at peace with what her past holds, what does she truly believe in and who is she!  Today finds me wondering:  at the age of 35, have I missed the oppertunity to have children?  is it too late for me.  Then on the other hand I am wondering because I have been alone for so long, other than the occasional boyfriend, would I adapt to having children so late in life?  should I have had my chrildrean earlier in life?  and will I truly find someone I can spend the rest of my life with, or have I spent so much time on myself and taken so long, that I have missed all the windows of oppertuntiy to find that once true mate and settle down.  Now granted I have the dog who has been a constant and loyal companion, has filled the void for several years, but have I become...
