Love. A word so simple yet its meaning eludes me. Like playing hide and seek. You know it's there, but you just can't seem to find it. Or am I just thinking it? Maybe I am the one who's hiding from it. Maybe I am the one that it seeks. Yet I remain hidden. Because I am afraid. Afraid not of love, but all that it entails. I do not think it's wrong to hide from it. But until I am ready, I will keep myself tucked away. I hope love waits. I hope love finds its patience as I am not easily convinced. Just give me time--just a brief respite. Tomorrow, I will be the seeker. Tomorrow, I will meet you halfway.

Tomorrow
Love. A word so simple yet its meaning eludes me. Like playing hide and seek. You know it's there, but you just can't seem to find it. Or am I just thinking it? Maybe I am the one who's hiding from it. Maybe I am the one that it seeks. Yet I remain hidden. Because I am afraid. Afraid not of love, but all that it entails. I do not think it's wrong to hide from it. But until I am ready, I will keep myself tucked away. I hope love waits. I hope love finds its patience as I am not easily convinced. Just give me time--just a brief respite. Tomorrow, I will be the seeker. Tomorrow, I will meet you halfway.
