To wait...

I want patience
I want trust
I want to know I have you to love
I want to wait
I want to rush
Anything to not give you up
And I think you're nervous
That I'll never come
And sometimes I wonder
If I'm really the one
But I won't let you go
No matter what they all say
Their opinions don't determine
The decisions I make
Give me strength
Give me knowledge
Let me believe that I have the courage
To hold real close
To hold on tight
One more day to try and make this right

♥ Love ♥

Love
Should come to you easily.
It should be an instant connection.
So many of us force it to be true.
We even believe it until we have found
that it was never real to begin with.
We depend on love to make us happy.
We depend on others to show and give us love.
We forget that love has always been with us since the beginning.
We forget that we don't need to seek it in others, but only to find it within

Looking In

Life has presented many windows for me to see
I am different inside, and I'm not sure what has changed.
Many of us lie awake at night wondering who we are.
I can finally go to sleep at night just knowing who I am.
It was never about who we try to prove ourselves to be.
It was always about knowing who we always were, but too afraid to be just that.
So much judgment we pass on each other.
Always thinking that what others perceived us to be, held true.
We give away our dignity and hearts with no questions asked, but why can't we just look at one another in the eyes and know, that at that moment, they are as perfect as they can be.
And with every moment more we grow and learn and love much more than we did before.
Forever, will I see you differently.
Forever, will I love you more and more.
Forever, will I show you how to do just the same.
For I am no better than you,
but just someone who wants to be true.
