I Look at You and I See Nothing but Love in your Eyes

Yes, maybe this is the way things should be. 

You know, sometimes even if a person is practically perfect for you in every way, if he doesn't want you, that's it. That should be the end of that. Wanting you versus not wanting you makes all the difference in the world. And that's really what it comes down to, even if you SHOULD be together, even if you would be PERFECT together... desire to be with you is most important.


This is the biggest realization I've had about my love life in awhile. I'm not going to chase after someone who won't chase after me. 

You were so Important to Me, Once

Oh, my beautiful, beloved
Memory
You're finally getting back to where you belong.

I was able to fool myself
Believe you
had a place in my future
But no longer.

You told me yourself.
We had no possibility
No chance of being together.

And now I believe you.

But don't be sad
My long lost sweet
This is how it should be.
My memories is where you should stay.

Let's act like it.

My Mule

When I think about
The way you look at me
The words you say to me
The things you do for me

I think that we can do this.

When I think about
The changes you're making for me
The support you give me
The person you are

I know that you are who I should be with.

When I think about
My "perfect" man
Who I want to be with
Versus who I should be with

I think that you might be the right person.

When I think about
The person that I should be with
The person who will love me
not best but Most

I know that person is you.

A Reflection

This semester, so much more than the past two, has been a changing one. And I love the way my life is coming together. I've met so many new people this semester, whom I adore. I have a balance in my activities and my schoolwork.

That being said, this has probably been the toughest semester since I've been in school. So much has happened to me and to my friends. God only knows how we managed to get through this. But we did. I am so very proud of us.

With a week and a half left until I go home for a glorious month, I'm struck by how much has changed in the past six months. Some things, I wish had stayed the same. But on a whole, I'm much happier this year than I was last year. And even if things are hard now, at least I have a solid support system. My roommates, my best friends, my activities, and classes... I need to remember more often how blessed I am.

I'm happy to see this semester end and see how the next six months treat me.
