I need you to understand something. I wrote this for you. I wrote this for you and only you. Everyone else who reads it, doesn’t get it. They may think they get it, but they don’t. This is the sign you’ve been looking for.
You were meant to read these words.

The Seraphim And The Pirate
You were better to the ones that were worse for you. And worse to the one that was better for you.
The power of hiding ourselves from one another is mercifully given, for men are wild beasts, and would devour one another but for this protection. Henry Ward Beecher (1813 - 1887), "Proverbs from Plymouth Pulpit", 1887
thank you for everything you say. everyday i look forward to your posts. the past 2 days i've read every single one you've given us and it has enlightened me in several ways.
I thought if I tried harder you would realised I deserved you love and you would break open to me and love me forever. I wanted to win your love, like a prize. I wanted you to be my prize. I'm sorry for the others they were pushing me to reach my potential and I went where they were pushing and didn't look back. I'm sorry... I wish I could have loved you back. I wish I had been pushing for fulfilment instead of his love.
I only want the one that is better for me. From sometime yesterday forward. I wonder, all of the time, day after day what it will be like when we make our dream come true. I'm waiting and I love you...
you inspired me to start a blog! it's photography from my road trip around the states and lyrics that relate. http://fromillusiontoliberation.blogspot.com/
Yes, I can read it but I don't agree with what you wrote. It is your prejudice and your doubts that lead you to the thought. He doesn't have to be handsome or perfectly fit but I want to be madly attracted to him. He doesn't have to be rich but I want to be proud of him privately and publicly. He doesn't have to be a good listener but I want to be heard and understood. Its as simple as that.
Isn't that the way of things? Unfortunately, in my experience, it is.

ReplyDeleteMaybe you
ReplyDeleteMaybe some mistakes are meant to be made
so you make that mistake
with Her -
and not Me -
Maybe all can be forgotten
if you just say
yes
to the heart
I've been holding out
for years
Maybe you just need to
ask the right question
to see Heaven
is right in front
of You

ReplyDeleteYes, I was, but something in her needs the better in me, more than I need 'your' better for me. "...and that has made all the difference...".

ReplyDeleteis there a specific intention in starting with plural but using singular form for the vice versa part? :)
ReplyDeletestory of my life...
ReplyDeleteEven as the years pass, this memory still lingers within every fiber of my brain. Never understanding why we do what we do.
