Loving your Love

You were that friend that stuck to me like glue
The one who made me smile whenever I felt blue
Your shadow behind assured me of your presence
To share your heart, I needed no License.
You were determined to be more than just a friend
The signs were clear
But I refused to see them
Uncertain of my affinity for you
I saw Love as a burden
Another cause for worry
To send you flowers
To hear your voice in the middle of the night
To show affection I did not feel
My idea of Love was erroneous

It’s a different story when a girl is in Love
I don’t know if I swept you off your feet
Or made your heart skip a beat
But I know my existence made you feel special
The thought of someone loving you made your day
You showed in every way possible that you were in Love
I knew I had found something special
A Jewel to treasure
A fortune to cherish
You proved yourself worthy of Love
I could not but Succumb to your magnetism
I had fallen for your Charm
I wanted to remain captive
Now I can look deep in your eyes and say those words.

"Thatz nice, keep being focused.
But i must say that there's a kind of attraction between the both of you which if you allow to grow will be the obsession of your soul.
I think your fate lies in your attitude towards him, if you give him reason to believe that you like him or that you'll answer when he calls. Then you just gotta be ready to pick that call.

This is the post you left on my blog and it made me do some serious reevaluating. I took it to mean that I have to consciously make a decision if I want or don't want something. I did. Thank you.

Oracle, your thoughts on a loving relationship are good for meditation.

There no true love without sacrifice.

Cheers and God bless.

i was having an arguement with a friend of mine weda it's worth it 4 a chick 2 b in love with a man who's dragging his feet in d hope dat one day he'd turn around & love her. i felt it was just an unnecessarily waste of energy (having been dai & knowing dat it ddnt easy o), but she sited examples of where a dude had married women they weren't exactly crazy abt d initial time.

it appears u have proved her argument right.
