Nothing is certain anymore. I used to know: I miss knowing. I had decided he was the one. Forever. For ever. Everlong. Everlast. But it wasn’t everlasting. And now? I’ve lost the partner to my dream.
Begin again. Start once more. All over. New introductions: new dynamics It’s all different. Unsettling. Exciting – I’m thrown off balance. Soo much to learn. What’s beneath the ripply surface? Open up, prise to sunlight; I must see. Figure: are you the new ‘one’?
A replacement? A new dream. A new adventure. A thousand ways to see the world. Perspective dominates so much. I think we come from similar mind - But unless you speak I cannot be certain. “What’re you thinking?” “Mmm… I don’t know” It’s a gap Between thought and mouth - I’ve been there, I’ve felt it. We need to build a bridge.
‘Put your trust in me, I’m not gonna die alone’ I don’t want to. Not alone. I need someone to accompany me. I want a family. Who? It feels like time to settle in. Who? I’m tired of this game This uncertainty Either let me be alone - Impossible for me, I know: I ***** too much up when I’m single. Yet there should be growth there. - Then let me be with the one.
I know there is no perfection. But imperfections may compliment. I know it takes work. Communication. Sacrifice. Energy. Time. I know difference must be respected. I know connection is of most importance - Or perhaps a close second to support. And love.
But love grows. Even arranged marriages fall into love. Why not choose? The one with the traits The dynamic that is desired Love will come It always does in the end So long as resentment does not dominate The dynamic is soo important! And the lifestyle - What am I willing to give up? What does he desire?
I’m over this dizzying romance game. I’m throwing the towel in. If not him, then someone else close by. Because I’ve always had too many options. And before that made me scared: Given urge to ‘play the field’ Taste all within range.
Now, now, I am tired. It’s nice to know someone’s intimacy Exploring beneath the cloak: Let me in, let me in, let me in. I know it takes time Let me in, let me in, let me in. But trust me. Please? Let me in, let me in, let me in. Coz ******! I’m letting you in. And ******! I want to show you my world. And to see yours. And when we escape this place, Maybe just for a day or two, But when we do, It’s fricken beautiful And we’re beautiful And I know that.
Please. I want to fall into love. Why not with him?
Tired of the dating game. At such an early age! Perhaps it's just a phase.. We all want our happily ever after, even if we've lost faith in true love. 'Put your trust in me, I'm not gonna die alone' from The Antlers 'Putting the Dog to Sleep': http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xg8Ckamh8Gw
