I have always wanted something different 
Someone different from what I know

Its is funny how we find love in unexpected places
Beyond imagination is the reality

What you thought will never be you
Now you find delight in

You find Joy in everyday waking
And in sleeping, rest

I wanted something different 
And...... Different looks like you
Different is You Difference

Difference

Knowing you wasn't in any way my doing
We were born to know eachother 
But, loving you is definitely a choice
You thought me to give chances
And the chance I gave you didn't make me regret it
They say love is a choice, this choice is worth it

I love the way you put effort in us
I see the way you take corrections without grudge 
I love the way you put me first 
I love the way you learn what I love
I love the way you support me
How you love God, family and friends 
How you take care of your own
How hard working you are

I see all these and I am at peace that I am safe
I am safe in you because you are rooted in Christ 
I know we have not been together for long for me to write all these epistles,  but trust me I see them.

You're beautiful and I love you

Are some people just unlucky?

Some people just don't find it easy 

Love, dreams, opportunities, aspirations 

No one to hold their hands, so they wouldn't falter


I am barely breathing,I am drowning 

I am at the end of my strength 

I am almost becoming desperate 

I am looking for something to hold on to

I am hanging on a thin thread of hope


Hope that one day, just some day

Someone will hold my hand

And make everything make sense


I will rest in faith and hope

Faith.....Hope
 Hope of things not seen

Hope of things not seen

Me with the fear of the unknown
Him who I needed to say more
Me who thought was protecting me
Him who I pushed away
Pushed too far
My fear finally won
My greed for perfection 
Giving no room for imperfections 

Am I perfect? No
Is he perfect? No
Why did it take such a long time to realise 
That I was the closed minded one
That I gave no chance
No room for excuses
Time and time again 

Now, it seems I lost
And all my fears won
All what I feared is right in my face
I am not unlucky in love
I just never gave love a chance 

 Unlucky

You are not hidden
The time isnt here yet
You are not hopeless 
Hope is what keeps you alive
To live everyday, to aim for dreams
Theres never been a moment He forgets you
And that is enough to bring you happiness 
In your most lowly moments 
He will save you 
He will make the wait worth it
Even if it doesn't look like it
He loves you  The wait

The wait

He said he just wanted to adore me
And adore he did
I was so scared to step out
He held my hand and told me it was okay
Okay to fear, to be insecure 
He reassured me and my fear left

How could you be so perfect 
And yet seem so far away?
How can your words be so assuring
But  you're out of my reach?
Seems we are worlds apart
And we are like parallel lines
We may never find a meeting point

Best I've ever had is what we had
It was beautiful and mind blowing 
How you allowed me be me
And gently showed me new things
I cherish every of the memories 

But I still fear
I love it so much I do not want it to end
But I cannot make it continue too
Because I don't want to fall too hard
I want to protect my heart
I don't want to get hurt, when it all ends
I told you I wanted no strings
But it was because of me

I like  everything about you
But I have to keep my heart safe Dilemma

When all is said and done
Conversations will dwindle
And friends become strangers
The cycle repeats itself
Even if you pushed a little harder this time
And you took the big risk 
To be more open and vulnerable 
And step out of the comfort zone 
To see what it looks like outside 
You might still get burnt, or so you think

Maybe 
You give alot quickly 
And expect so much in return 
You like people easily, it makes you vulnerable 
Maybe you are a hopeless romantic,
Who just wants to be loved
Or you're just looking in the wrong way
Or maybe the love is never coming 
And nobody will ever see you worth it

Maybe you need to give it some time
And see what comes of it
The probability is low, or is it zero?

Maybe you're just waiting for the love that is never coming 

But you wouldn't ever give up
Would you?

Looking at him
Wielding the weapon 
With a look so cruel and inhumane 
I knew he could do anything if I fought.....

There was no fight even left in me
Because i was looking my fear right in the eyes
Surrendering was the only option
My mind thought of a million things at once
The probability of my safety was low
I let go of all I had on me
He was the thief
And i was the one hoping my life was saved

I overcame the panic
But I do not think I can forget that day....
The day i was robbed
 Robbery

I pressed the button
I took the step
Staying at a place wouldn't make a difference 
So why not just do it?
I made the effort 
I encourage myself
What is there to loose anyway?
Nothing!!!!
I've got nothing to loose
So I'll just keep taking the steps
One at a time
Till I reach the destination 
So I did it
I did it afraid 
But I still did Decisions
