The stranger within

The minute you realize you don't need anyone to "complete" you, that you came into this world a whole person, the sooner you will be happy with who you are and find someone to compliment the individual you already are G Melissa

We sometimes hold on so tight when someone leaves us behind We don't let go and carry them around with us all the time What we don't realize is by not letting them go, we make no room for someone new So when it gets time to Say Goodbye Mourn and cry for the tie that has broken But don't cry too long And when you are done Go out in the world and Say Hello And welcome the new people into your life

Though still in bed, my thoughts go out to you, my Immortal Beloved, now and then joyfully, then sadly, waiting to learn whether or not fate will hear us - I can live only wholly with you or not at all - Yes, I am resolved to wander so long away from you until I can fly to your arms and say that I am really at home with you, and can send my soul enwrapped in you into the land of spirits - Yes, unhappily it must be so - You will be the more contained since you know my fidelity to you.

Am I The Fool, Standing on a cliff, one foot off the ground Believing in something that never was? Am I The Fool, To want to try one last time To ask every time? Am I The Fool, Not accepting that this is not what you want Thinking there is a way out? Tell me, am I The Fool To believe that love conquers all To have hope? Or am I simply a Fool That can't accept you don't love me?

The time apart seems to have outweighed the time together The criticism and insults seems to have been far more than the compliments I finally see that it's no longer about you It's about me I got over you and I didn't even realize it I've moved on My heart's no longer heavy And I'm no longer sad I got over you...
