Two flames sparked from but one ember:
Forward and backward doth time fly,
Wither thou art, remember
~Drustin MacKelter
Two shall be born the whole wide world apart;
And speak in different tongues, and have no thought
Each of the other’s being, and no heed;
And these o’er unknown seas to unknown lands
Shall cross, escaping wreck, defying death, 5
And all unconsciously shape every act
And bend each wandering step to this one end,—
That, one day, out of darkness, they shall meet
And read life’s meaning in each other’s eyes...
~Susan Marr Spalding
From this day forward,
You shall not walk alone.
My heart will be your shelter,
My arms will be your home.
~Unknown
It's so hard to tell you
What's in my heart
I only have half of it
I'm crippled from the start
I try to find myself
But I know I'm not wholly here
I do my best with what I've got
Waiting for the missing part to appear
So many times
I tried to fit other pieces in
They didn't work
And now my weary hope wears thin
I look to the heavens
Wondering if they hear my call
I plan for other joys
And watch the rain fall
Don't get excited
It's unrequited
Can't help but feel slighted
It's unrequited
Hate what's confided
It's unrequited
Wasn't invited
It's unrequited
Eyes shone
Fell in love alone
Hope flown
Fell in love alone
Heart turned stone
Fell in love alone
Should have known
Fell in love alone
Unseen strain
Swallow the pain
Scarred dream slain
Swallow the pain
Slowly drain
Swallow the pain
Dried-up rain
Swallow the pain
Be a friend
You will mend
Faith ascend
You will mend
Comprehend
You will mend
Let life wend
You will mend

I want a man who looks at me as if I hung the stars in the sky
I want a man who holds me as if I made the sun rise for him
I want a man whose kisses and touch make me lose and find myself
I want a mna who grasps that I am betting my life on his loyalty
I want a man who treasures my need for security that goes beyond the physical
I want a man whose love for me grows stronger with time
-That love, growing in different ways, adding layer upon layer, like an onion
--Where if you were to peel them back
It would make you cry
I want a man who is honest with me and patient as I process it
I want a man who knows communication involves many things INCLUDING words
I want a man who is strong enough to ask for (or at least accept) help with his weaknesses
I want a man intelligent enough to learn as much as he can from ALL of his life
I want a man who cherishes his family and comprehends it fluid definition
I want a man who realizes God is the beginning and the result -- and acts accordingly
--A man remembered for his kindness, honor, bravery, compassion, justice (tempered with mercy), dedication, and devotion
