I know it's not true, but I just feel like there are no guys who look at a girl and fall in love with her soul before loving her body as well. It's always vice versa and often times they never even get past the first step and never love their soul.
There is nothing wrong with ***, it's perfectly natural I'm just saying, it has become the goal when searching for a significant other, and it breaks my heart. I would love a man even if I could never have *** with him due to a disorder or medical problem or whatever if I loved his soul, I'm not saying I would be thrilled about it, never having the opportunity to have children or anything, but if I really loved him, I would. And even though I know it is not necessarily true it just feels like no man would love a woman who he could never be intimate with even if he loved her soul.  

I'm getting sick of the only compliment any woman ever receives being "you're pretty" referring to her looks. Mainly because I am not even that.

Oh, and to be clear, I DO recognize women do this as well, they only judge based on looks and stuff and I acknowledge that, not trying to be sexist I'm sorry if I have offended anyone, I'm just in a  mood right now and need to express it.

Thinking Out Loud
It's propped against the wall,
anxiously awaiting to be played
sometimes it takes week
but often just a day

When she takes it in her hands
and begins to tune it up
it wakes up from its sleep
feeling the comfort of her touch

As she starts to strum along
the flowing melody is found
her voice begins to rise
my heart smiles at the sound

Eavesdropping just to hear her
because she doesn't understand
how I'm overwhelmed with joy
and that I'm her biggest fan

It's not the way she plays
or how beautiful she sings
it's the humbleness she shows
and the serenity it brings

To have that kind of passion
without needing to be praised
my daughter's gift sent from above
gratefully received in many ways

So much it wants to say,
so much it wants to speak.
My inflexible tongue,
useless and weak.
like blank pages
it ***** and flutters.
as if so much
it wants to utter.
It invites me to
explore and scroll.
I need a pen for
my unwritten soul.

The embers are slowly burning out, the fire of faith has been growing dim. My mind is wandering toward some foolish whim.
I can hardly recognize, when the seeds of doubt , snuck in.
It is time for a spiritual awakening to begin.
My prayer, Dear Lord, is that you would ignite your fire in me .
Help me, to recognize, the plans you have for me.
Lord, ignite your fire, help me, to be a blessing to those around me.
Let your light shine, in me, may it shine brightly enough , for others to see you at work in me. It only takes but a spark and the fire can start  again.
Lord, ignite your fire.
Lord, I pray that your fire, will be anew in me, each day
I had some notes in a notebook, from back when I was depressed and doubting, and those notes were the beginnings  of this poem.
I felt that some of you might be able to relate to this poem.
