When We Risk It All

We can't blame others when love dwindles away -
For we knew from the start it never promised to stay.

It's just one of those things were the stakes are high -
And sometimes it's forever, and sometimes it's good-bye.

When you love the right way, you will never lose -
No matter what path life may force you to choose.

You may end up with tears, or a broken heart -
But you knew what you signed up for from the start.

You can only give what you've got to give -
And if that's not enough, then you must continue to live.

Life will go on and broken hearts will heal -
You must continue on your quest, for that's the deal.

Throw your heart into life, and never stall -
For the greatest risk is to risk nothing at all.

You see, love is the only thing that we know -
That can be divided and divided but continue to grow.

And life isn't long enough to lock away our heart -
Just because life may have forced two people apart.

We will continue to love and continue to lose -
We will continue to pick and continue to choose.

And then one day we will just risk it all -
Take the chains off our hearts and dismantle the wall.

The last time we love will be the forever -
And never again will our hearts be forced to sever.

We'll never have doubts that it'll go away -
Because this time, it'll be here to stay.

But until then we must endure all the pain -
For we only see sunshine if we can wait through the rain.

My Best Feature

I asked my friend this afternoon,
As I gazed into my reflection,
What she thought of what I saw.
She said, "Images are usually misconceptions."

I started to put down my appearance,
Wishing I was thinner or taller.
She looked at me with understanding eyes,
Saying, "Superficial wishes only make you smaller."

I knew she was right, but who was she to talk,
For she was every guy's dream.
I tried to point this out to her,
She replied, "Appearances aren't always what they seem."

"Tell me five features you admire in yourself," she said,
And I knew my troubles had just begun,
For I could see the hurt in her expression,
When I couldn't even think of one.

I could not think of a single feature I liked,
And I could feel my stomach slowly start to sink.
So I turned to my friend and simply said,
"Well what do you think?"

"I think you're looking at it all wrong," she said,
"And I wish I could make it clearer.
It's what's inside you that makes you beautiful,
And not what can be seen in the mirror."

She said, "You're the most loving person I know,
And I hate to watch you fall apart.
If you want to know what makes you beautiful to me,
Your best feature is your heart."

Plain Old Me

I know that I will never be
the perfect shape or size,
but I know that I am beautiful
looking through your eyes.
My hair may not be perfect,
and I may not fit size 2,
but I always feel so beautiful,
all because of you.
I know I'm not a model,
and I know I'll never be,
but you make me feel so great about
being plain old me.

My waist might not be tiny,
and my arms might not be thin,
but somehow you have taught me,
to love the girl within.

If you werent here to love me,
and show me what you see,
I wouldnt be this happy,
being plain old me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I tried to tell you in person,
But the words just wouldnt come out,
I didnt know how to explain it...
I know youre wondering what this is about.

m going to be brave this time,
Im gonna let go of all my pride,
Ive got to get this out....
No more denying whats inside.

Im not that good with words,
But please just give me a chance,
Dont walk away from now
Without giving a second glance.

Cuz youre my one and only,
Youre what makes my life complete,
Ive never felt this way before,
I know God intended for us to meet.

Where would I be without you?
You make my whole world right...
I want to be with you now and forever...
Every day and every night.

Please dont laugh about it,
Because Im as serious as can be,
Im giving you everything I have,
Hoping in return youll want to be with me.

We may not see each other often,
And maybe Ive only known you for a few days,
But everything about you makes me happy
In so many different ways.

Youre the sweetest guy I know,
You can make a bad day good,
You always make me feel special
And never misunderstood.

I think I should let you know,
I dont know...maybe I should wait,
But Im afraid if I dont tell you now,
Soon it may be too late.

So Im gonna be truthful now,
This is exactly how I feel...
Everything I say to you now
Is completely and implicitly real.

Since the time we first talked,
I’ve known you were for me,
Theres been no doubt in my mind,
No answer I couldnt see.

Maybe you dont feel the same about me,
But if Im lucky youll say you do,
I dont know why or how but
Im honestly, desperately, and completely falling in love with you.

^^ oooo some ppl can write~ now i'm sleepie :O ahahaha ok i'm just being weird.... i want jamba juice.... hmmmms
