Gay Marriage

I had a thought the other day (yes it hurt) about marriage.

I’ve grown up thinking that finding that perfect guy and having a big white wedding was what it was all about, but I have come to the realization that, marriage may not be what I want after all.

(Not that I don’t want to get married.)

I have a lot of GLBTQ friends who don’t have the same right to get married as I do.

What makes me so much better than them that I am allowed to get married and they are not? Love is love no matter which two people it is between. Why should I be able to get married if my friends can’t?

(Of course I still want to get married because of the connection and commitment you get out of a marriage, but I really don’t agree with my homosexual friends not being able to get married.)

And to that I say, Way to go Iowa and California for passing gay marriages!

The Bachelor

Did anyone else watch the Bachelor tonight?

There’s Jason, he seems like a sweet guy. He’s been hurt before and he fell in love with two women (which doesn’t seem all that impossible given the situation he is put in), but what the heck is his problem? I completely understand wanting to follow his heart, but what I don’t understand is his need to destroy his fiance’s heart on national television.

He never even gave Melissa a chance. He spent all this time on the show talking about how he wanted someone who was going to be open with him. He was never open with her. She found out on the show (after he told the nation) that he couldn’t get Molly out of his head and that he was still in love with her.

Are you kidding me??

And what was Molly thinking?? Is she a fool. I know she said that she still loved him and she said that they would see where things would go, however, she was making out with him before the show was over. After the show was over my roommate had a great point: he has said “I love you” and “I can’t live without you” to FOUR women over the past THREE years.

How could a guy be so insensitive to break his fiance’s heart on NATIONAL TELEVISION????

I have been in a similar situation where I fell in love with a guy and he broke it off with me. I went back to him because I thought we were great together, we were in love. (Or so I was led to believe.) In reality, I was in love with ther person he was pretending to be. It ended up being worse the second time around.

Even though what he did was terrible, I hope he ends up happy, for his sake and for his son’s sake.

Live, Love, Learn, and Love again.

I hear the gentle tick-tock
of the clock upon my wall
the minutes pass so slowly
as I drift away to sleep
thoughts about you come to me
every time I close my eyes
tears overflow down my cheek
as the minutes pass on by
I long to be beside you
every hour of the day
my soul is full of heartache
everyday you are away
many tears spill from my eyes
as I long to hold you near
to feel your arms around me
nestled close to you so dear
my heart longs to be with you
no matter where you may be
for it is yours completely
without you it would crumble
from the pain of you not there
you alone I wish to hold
my love is forever yours

Sensations of Romance

Arms around me in a warm embrace
I wish never to leave this place
for here I find such comfort and love
feelings that come only from above.

Right beside you is where I belong
Cuddling into your arms so strong
next to you is where I long to stay
in your arms I yearn to be each day.

When I’m with you my heart starts to spin
from your gentle touch upon my skin
each sensation I yearn more for you
with a passion so deep and true.

Heartbreak

My heart is broken
neatly in two
should it heal
only time will tell.
I loved you once and lost
only to repeat my fate
will another come along
to mend my weary state
should I ever love another
for you alone I see
from this bondage of despair
I long to be set free.
To hold you in my arms
is my hearts desire true
but forever my love
my heart must bid you adieu
forever you’ll remain in my heart
left to be solely friends
but you my love-
I’ll love you til the end.

Destiny

What brought us together,
you and I?
was it just by chance
you caught my eye?
Did destiny have a hand
in guiding our fate?
With patience my love
we must wait.

No a moment to soon
we found each other
gazing silently.
Each moment leading to another
passion soaring out of sight.
In this place
we’re sure to find
each other in a warm embrace.

Is it right
to turn away
from destiny
who’s sure to stay
and guide us
to one anothers arms?
For I know,
I can’t resist your charms.

True Love (In a Whisper)

Can you feel the beat of my heart,
even thought we’re miles apart?
Can you feel my loving embrace,
even though I’m miles from this place?
Can you taste my lips so sweet,
even though I can’t walk down your street?
Can you hear me whisper my love so true,
in words that are meant for only you?

Do you long to hold me near?
For losing me you shouldn’t fear.
Do you long to feel my gentle touch,
never to break free from my clutch?
Do you long for my fregrance so sweet,
as my lips gently tickle your cheek?
Do you long for me to cling to you,
as I whisper words of love so true?

Are you wondering how
two can be so in love right now?
Are your thoughts carried away,
to be with me today?
Our passion that continues to build
as our hearts continue to be filled
it’s you alone I long to greet,
with words whispered soft and sweet.

You were the first
to open my heart
You won me over
right from the start
I was quiet and unsure
so timid and shy
But your gentle ways
showed me you were a patient guy
I grew to trust you
more than you know
I fell in love
cautiously though
You took a risk;
told me you loved me
I loved you right back
I love you still but you don’t see
bcause the feelings you have
aren’t what they used to be
We’re friends nothing more
what you feel? I’m unsure
