have never been in love. I do not open up to many. When I do, I just
get stabbed in my soft parts. I wear a shell around my heart made of
stone and I discard it when I am alone with you. Where did this hard
man came from and how he can be so cold on the outside. It is because
I have not had a dream in a long time. See this life I have had can
make a good man turn bad. So please, please, please let me get what I
want this time. Lord knows it would be the first time. There is a warm
man on the inside.
When you said you cared, it touched my soul. No one has ever cared
enough to say so. It touches my soul. I hope there will never be
another. I meet many and as I get to know them, they begin to believe
they know me better than I know myself. I back off and would rather
not know them at all. I want you to know me better than I know myself
just as I would like to get to know you.
Let's not put faith in marriage and simply believe in us. It is not a
piece of paper or a ring that are the bonds of love, it is you and I.
Believe in the future and do not look back; the past is no friend of
ours. I believe in children because they are the future. Marriage is
for children. Until then I will be your hopeless romantic.
