My first time.  Such incredible creations here, I feel I'm starting all over again.  I have volumes, I chose this.  PLEASE tell me what you think!!!  Here goes...........

                DIAGNOSIS

Is there a doctor in the house,
Educated in the ways of love,
Who can answer these age-old questions that
Threaten to take me under?
Why........?
How...........?
If it doesn't happen until I'm not looking,
Yet my heart and my mind know
On the hunt I will forever be,
Until my prey surrenders and
Shows me what I seek,
Then how can it ever happen to me?

For all that talk about someone for everyone,
Why must the journey almost kill our
Faith in love?
Is his climb almost over?
Better yet, is mine?
How will I know it's him?
Should I look for signs?
When I sneeze, will he say "Bless you!!"?
Does he ask forgiveness of his sins?
When I sing, will he stop and listen?
Will he be able to determine love from lust,
Cry when he must,
And freely give me his trust?

These questions never stop,
And the answers never come.
I keep on doubting,
And fear soon I will just give up.
Growin' tired of looking for that one
Twinkle in all these dead, dark
Sparklin' with hate eyes.

So, doctor, if you even care,
Can you perscribe a remedy, or even a
Miraculous vaccine,
For this condition ailing me?
Take from me this heart God gave too much love,
Make me function only from the right side
Of my cranium.
I won't feel much,
But maybe it'll finally make sense.
No need for answers,
Because I just won't care about
False pretense.

Loads of questions here! Those answers will come when you find that someone. It's something you just know from within.

God never gives too much love, for that's that makes the world go round.
