Reality of Love
Sometimes I wish I
wasn't here.
Again, in this area of life.
An area which I am not strong in,
Maybe that's why I didn't want
give up on the last.
I held on longer than I
should have.
Fearing now what I feared then.
The thought of dating.
I wish I could say I have
everything in order,
I don't.
But then who really does?
Do we pick and choose only when
we are at our best?
Will you be rejected when you are not?
Why play charades?
Why make it more than what it is?
Why the facades?
Can't we be normal and just accept
ourselves as we are right now?
The other person you seek or want,
has to accept you just as you are.
Do we forget those words
that seem important only
at weddings: for better OR worse?
Where is love if you can't love
them at their worst?
Where is unconditionality?
To love without having to
receive it back.
I guess it's rare these days.
I guess we get caught up in looks
and what traits they possess
on the outside.
We pysch ourselves out with
the what ifs and if onlys.
The dreams we have are just that:
dreams.
Reality is living it,
day in and day out.
Making love work,
if we really cared.
Finding someone who could
share and express love
and accept them for who they are.
Even at their worst.
It's about find that person you could
accept regardless of the fact.
Get out of your dreams,
and get into reality.
