I want...

I want a man who is confident in himself, but not cocky.
I want a man who will tell me "When I hear this song, it reminds me of you."
I want someone who can can cook.
Someone who takes care of himself and his life.
Someone who loves to stay in, make dinner and watch a movie as much as he likes to go out for a night on the town.
I want someone who is nice and sweet and creative and athletic and manly and thoughtful and chill.
I want someone who makes me smile each day and will be there for me no matter what.
He has to love music and enjoy going to concerts.
If he plays an instrument, is creative in his career, or rides a motorcycle - even better.
I want someone who wants to get married and start a life with me.
and I know I deserve all of these things and more.

Its' you, not me

You say you love me, but not enough
her afflictions to you have just been too much
you walk around like you are so upset, get over yourself, this i will not bet
you talk of feelings you don't want to hurt
if you'd look past yourself, you'd realize your worth
i've given you my heart, my soul and my touch
obviously these things just aren't enough
letting go will be the hardest thing
moving on to see what else life can bring
so i'll go on with myself a little bit worn
hopefully the next man will not harbor such scorn.

I will miss you and our "happy little family" more than you will ever realize.

Is Love Enough?

In the age of marriages that never last, is it even worth it to get married? Can love be enough to sustain a relationship without the need for rings and parties and promises?
For me, I want to have a life with someone; to be committed to someone and have that person there at the end of the day to lean on, no matter what kind of day I've had. I've always dreamed of getting married, I suppose it's just that natural progression in life that tugs at my heart. I associate having that ultimate relationship with the ring that goes along with it, the house that we build with one another & the dogs (kids) that we raise together. Is there a need for marriage if the relationship is great? Isn't the love between us be enough that we can be happy enough?
I'm really hoping it is.
