Am I that complex? that no one knows, not even I?
and only God above knows all about why?
why I am who I am, and I do what I do
I do not know myself, that much is true

I think I know myself, for just a second, and yet I am wrong
one minute Im in love and to sing my love a song
next minute I do not and couldnt believe I did,
Oh, Where is my love, He has the key! he must be hid

God PLEASE send him soon theres a large hole
a hole in my heart, one key fits, I know in my soul
who he is,, what he is, how he is I know him well
but only one fits, Oh, where is he? my heart doth swell

Sometimes I am so lonely, I cry and feel alone, no one to love
no one to call my own, so I pray to God above
Oh God give my love his key. the one that fits so good
into my heart, soul, and mind like my love should


I feel so picky, do I not have the right?
I mean.. I need to find the one I shall keep for life
I have hurt a few in my spastic hunt
I didn’t mean to, but I got to find the one I want

God, Im sick of lookin, I guess that’s why
Why I have come so close to throwing my heart at anyone by
So I give thee my heart, for you know who,
You don’t even have to seek, all you say is “YOU”

Im getting impatient God, Oh how I long
I long to look in my love’s eyes to see pure strong
Strength in Christ, strength in body, strength in love
One whom I can trust, and tell everything above

Can I not be understood? I doubt it, its not easy
For I don’t even sometimes know me!
But my love will know.. how how great that will be
To have someone who knows every corner of me!

But I guess I will wait cuz it is my whole life
Cant act in haste, or Id lie in strife
So I will tarry, and be the way I am
‘Til I find the one I will marry

i know how you feel, yet: we all wish for the perfect love, or at least a small token...but if you truly "love thy self" your heart will never be broken

Childhood Memories...your countenance...hoarse whispers...serving wench...
stolen hours...devotion...Master

I certainly can relate to this.... this is a lovely poem, Gentle Soul.

Thank you.. its one of my older ones.. but I give God the glory, and Dream the credit.. he says it was I who did it all.. but he pushed me and gave me confidence, and it was his idea, he even gave me my pen name
Thank you DreamEvil
