What I Ache For
Written by Heather Fraser
What I Ache For
I wrote this powerful prayer many, many years ago when I felt trapped in a life that was not my own. Today, I am happy to say, just about all of this prayer has come true, and I am blessed with my authentic, beautiful life! Be careful what you ache for...
I ache to be wanted instead of needed,
I ache for my eyes to be met and held for more than a split second,
I ache for a strong, silent hug that doesn't let go in such a hurry,
I ache to be seen through the eyes of one's soul instead of one's head,
I ache to touch and be touched with uninhibited passion and honesty,
I ache for my heart to touch another's,
I ache for my heart to be touched by another,
I ache to share moments without words, yet know Love is speaking,
I ache to sing my heart out,
I ache to move my body and dance the spirit within me with abandon,
I ache to speak what's in my heart without judgment, ridicule or misunderstanding,
I ache for a kiss that touches my soul and not just my lips,
I ache to laugh like a child,
I ache to cry like a chid,
I ache to connect,
I ache to make love to a whole person; body, mind, and spirit,
I ache to be ached for,
I ache to know that everything I ache for is okay and normal and healthy,
I ache to share the beauty, wonder, and magic of my soul with one who can love it, not fear it,
I ache to be loved for being authentic and real,
I ache for these truths to be shared and lived out by anyone and everyone who's feeling the same ache.
I ache to live uniquely,
I ache for the courage to be set free,
I ache for God to show me how.
