So....not knowing whom 'created' the pictures i regret to inform you i have no names to credit where credit is due......

I am overflowing with passionate love,
I want to pursue him with the excuse that I'm impulsive and young.
But I will wait and pray instead,
Because there is someone that I am meant to wed.
They all tell me that I simply must not possess the desire,
That I have never felt the ignition when someone sets my heart on fire.

But oh, they couldn't be more wrong.

I'm holding myself back because I love him more than I love myself,
I'm stepping back and letting him live, placing my own interests on the shelf.
When they tell me I don't feel the hurt,
When I see him laugh and I see him flirt,
It's because they don't understand that true love waits,
Jumping at each sensation is always a mistake.

My darling, I hope he's fighting and yearning,
And saving himself for a future that we can't determine.
If our souls were made to unite one day,
I'm not going to let my years go to waste,
On little boys who use me,
Or emotionally abuse me.
Soulmate, hear me, hear me:

O, my darling I want to learn who I am and my identity is not in a teenager's arms,
Although the feelings make my heart burn and I can't resist his charms.
Please don't be distracted by the pretty girls and their batting eyes,
Because it's insecurity in disguise.
Please take your time and see these tears and hear my appeal,
For more than anything in the world I want you to find a love that's real.

Darling, this land is wide and these people engaging and bold,
But please don't buy into the cheap love that's being sold.
You deserve more than the brokeness that comes from telling a girl: it's over,
You don't need "experience" to perfectly show a girl that you love her.
For when you meet her, your heart will speak the truth alone,
You'll take her hand, escorting her to the right side of your throne.
Tell her that you waited and that you paid the price
But you wouldn't change a single day because love takes sacrifice.

Reflections

I thought you were "the one" but then I saw a discouraging flash of what was inside of you.
So I walked away with tears in my eyes and vowed to never let a beautiful face grab me and lead me to forget the importance of a heart.

Because I want someone who doesn't judge me for who I am on the outside. Like I did with you.
I lay awake so late at night wondering why I was so foolish.
You didn't go out of your way to hurt me. You stayed true to character. I didn't find out what your character was... so in retrospect, I hurt myself.

Usually I can find a song that relates to the situation. The only song I can relate with is silence. The silence intensifies the regret over every mistake I have ever made. It makes me feel negative about everything.

I used to dream about your eyes and the moment I saw them. Now, I don't have the heart to look at anything colored a rich dark brown. It's bittersweet. I know there is some part of me that is still in denial and adores you. So it's hard to turn my back completely.

I used to look at myself in the morning and feel clothed with hope that my dreams may come true. Now I look at that silly, wistful face reflecting back into my eyes and feel bad for her if nothing else.

Each time I fall I think a net will catch me and wrap me up and keep me safe. I have learned from all the bruising falls that I must keep myself safe. I always thought I could depend on someone else. They always let go.

It hurts. It hurts. The emotional wounds are never healing. Maybe that's because I tend to them constantly. If I let them heal naturally with time, I am sure they will fade away, even if ever so slowly. I keep rebandaging, thinking covering them up will speed up the process.

Outwitted...

by Edwin Markham

He drew a circle that shut me out —

Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout.

But Love and I had the wit to win:

We drew a circle that took him in!
